You might be better off in /g/, anon.
Can you explain in more detail? Say you push the power button, what happens after that? Step by step.
Is the power switch in the back of your pc, most likely near or on the power supply, turned off or set to 220v? Is your cable plugged into the wall/power supply/circuit breaker?
dead mobo battery?

Okay so everything on the PC is working. Is the problem you not getting video on your monitor? or are you not getting a POST beep from your PC?

/g/ is full of pretentious faggots, they have a good heart though. Try using the /sqt/ thread there.
Did you at any point smell burnt plastic or smoke the last few days?
Double check your psu switch on the back of the case. If nothing happens when you hit the power button, either your power supply is fried or the wire connecting your power button to the board is kaputt. Start looking there, anon

The easy way to reset your CMOS is to take out the batter, start your computer, turn it off, and put it back in. However many mobos have protections against that. So you'll have to look on your mobo for a spot that says "CMOS Reset" or some aught like it and put a jumper on the pins, then follow the same step for the easy way. Just take off the jumper after you're done.
