Mend Turn Set Power

i cannot get my pc to turn on?

my computer wont turn on. i moved housed recently and when i set my computer the power light stays on continously stay on when the computer is plugged in and i can still get power from the usb ports (to charge my mp3 player). i have tried changing the power supply and i have aslo done a board check to see if my motherboard is shorting out because it is touching the case but i still could not get any action from the motherboard. can any1 help me solve my problem please.

If you have just moved house, it is possible that one or more of your system components has become unseated during transit.

Try pushing the cpu, memory and other peripheral cards into their sockets, remove the power cable from the PC for 5-10 seconds and try it then.
