There is a switch on the back of the computer right above the power cord plug the switch has to be in the on possition or the computer will not turn on 1 means on 0 means off

When you try to turn on the computer look for any signs that it is getting power meaning is thereare any lights on at all if not try a different outlet, maybe different power surg strip if that is what you use, or try the first opption.
