Do you get any beeps when you switch your PC on? If not there is likely to be a problem with your processor talking to your Motherboard (If so try re-seating the CPU). If you do get any beeps you should check the motherboard manufacturers website which should diagnose it for you.

Try pulling everything out except for the processor, heatsink + fan and memory and see if it POST's. Also remove it from the case and try it as it could be grounded somewhere on the case.
