First thing...it's ATX reset time! (yes, that favourite of the tech guys...according to some, it fixes a broken screen
)
Take the battery out and disconnect the power cable. Then, hold down the power button for 45 seconds. Now replace the power cable and see if it turns on...
Now panic as that didn't work

Could be a malfunctioning cooling fan, was it making any noises before it died?“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
