iMac G5 won't boot, infinite blinking LED light, and no startup sound.

I got a iMac G5 iSight 20 inch from a vintage computer store for 25 dollars, bringing it home, I put in a hard drive and new ram of 2 gigabytes, and the hard drive came with Mac OS X Leopard, I got the hard drive from the same place for 8 dollars. I powered it on and no sound, nothing on the screen, and the LED light was flashing in a loop, and you could not power it off, and the fans did not even run.
