Subject: Dead Color Classic

I have a mint Color Classic that I use for an on going virtual art show in my TV room. When I left town for a while, I shut it down but forgot to turn the power switch off. After sitting for about a month, it will not start. All I get it a slight noise like the monitor is trying to start-up but that is it...dead.

I have followed the other suggestions on this board:

Removed the PRAM battery.

Replaced the PRAM battery with known good one.

Tried starting it up with a known good keyboard.

Did I fry the power supply by not shutting it completely off?

I purchased this with hopes of upgrading it....but is that not possible now?

Any suggestions?
Thanks!
