G5 2mhz tower Turning ON the Mac after 30 minutes is OK but if the computer is OFF for 4 hours or more then the Mac frooze at startup: no screen, no USB (the mouse don't light ON). I must reset (holding down the front button 5 secondes) to boot correctly.
However if the G5 is not only turn OFF but the AC cable unplug the Mac boot perfectly.
A similar problem happen when the computer go to sleep for more then 30 minutes: the mac frooze, no screen, no mouse.
Any suggestion will be appreciate.

Yep. I was thinking that or PRAM/PMU needs to be reset.

Maybe it's not dead yet, but is low enough in voltage to cause malfunctions - quite possible. Anyhow...
Did you reset PRAM?
Did you reset the PMU?
