imac wont boot

I tried to upgrade from os 9.2 to OS X 10.3 panther on an imac 333 strawberry with 128MB or ram. it was going smoothly.. then after the installation asked to restart, i click restart and then the computer started to restart and shut off.

Now I try to start it, i get the little startup sound and then i hear the hard drive start to spin and within a second or two the thing goes completely dead. I've tried all sorts of key combinations and tried booting up to the OS 9 but nothing works. I'm thinking its the power supply but if anyone has any ideas i'd appreciate it.

Please tell me ...

... you updated the firmware before you installed OS X?
