Is everything seated properly inside the computer?  I once received a new computer where the processor had been pulled slightly loose due to a heatsink that was too big....and all that happened when I pressed the power button was that the fans whirred, NOTHING came on the screen.

So if you don't even get the usual white text on black background of the system checks and stuff, then it's worth checking that everything is still plugged in properly
