You'd never know. The PSU might not be able to supply enough power to everything because it degrades over the time.
Try using the PSU from your other G3 icon_rolleyes.gif

Yeah....uve got a point there.... True, i can try to use the psu from the other g3, but just worried that something else would go wrong in the process of tring to use the psu from the g3 which is working. As the saying goes....if it aint broken, dnt try to fix it !

Perhaps i shoukd try to find out...what other psu are compatible with a g3.

The iMac G4's PSU might just be fine and have the same connector and they are low power consumption. The chances that the iMac G4 PSU may work is just way higher than a PowerMac G4 because obviously it is much more powerful.
