If everything is plugged in, and nothing happens at all most likely the power supply has failed.

If not, there is a problem with the motherboard or the power switch.

I'd start by verifying the cables are OK (you'd be surprised how often plugging everything in and verifying outlets has worked). Then if no power at all, try a new power Supply
