Mac G4 Dual 867 MDD won't power on

My Power Mac no longer responds to the Power button on the front of the case. Removing the AC cord and reinserting it allows for one power up via the button on the front panel. Any ideas / real solutions would be appreciated.

If it's booting up all the way. Check your date and time. If they are wrong, replace the 3.6 volt PRAM battery. See the purple battery in step #5 of this guide: Power Mac G4 MDD PCI Cards Replacement
