Power button or its connector could be defective. Try powering ON by shorting the pins on the motherboard where the power switch connects. Use a small screw driver.

No sign of power at all? Are your power wires (from the power supply to the motherboard) plugged correctly?
Did you use the correct power supply? Is there a master switch behind the power supply?
Does your PC's casing have an intrusion detector, that is if the computer detects that it is opened, it wouldnt turn on until you bypass something?
If these don't help, bring your PC to your PC shop. They'll find out the problem. I hope it's not a broken motherboard though. Good luck!

have you changed power cords? proved the power outlet works? check I/O switch at back of pc? has surge protector tripped (if any), fuses. To get it checked electrically I would be taking it to a shop, as they have the right gear, multi meters etc. If all is ok in your house, to prove power outlet, just plug in a lamp you know works, if you suspect the pc power cord, replace it . borrow one from the hot water jug same cord. If you got a surge protector chech that hasn't tripped, easily missed and yes you will kick yourself, I have many a time. just a few tips. good luck.
