My iBook G4 turns on but screen is black

My ibook G4 will turn on, only the fans spin and i can hear what sounds like the HD running. The screen is black and no chime.

I tried cmd+opt+shift+power and turned off the computer, it restarted CHIMED once and was able to Target Mode… but it didn't last, the drive ejected from iMac.

Anything I can do to boot this sucker up?

Sounds like your hard drive may be failing. If you can, use target mode and check it with Disk Utilities or boot up from your original system installation disk or retail system disk, go to the second screen pull down menu to Utilities > Disk Utility, select your hard drive in the left hand column and see if you can repair the drive. Hopefully you have your data backed up.

Your machine uses a 2.5" PATA hard drive, here's how to replace it: iBook G4 14" 933 MHz-1.33 GHz Hard Drive Replacement
