You might want to get a power supply tester. Also if the motherboard is shorted out against the case, then it's not gonna start up. Try building it outside the case to take it out of the equation. You also may have doa motherboard. if you don't know how to diagnose then you may have to take it in somewhere and have them do it.

Did you wire up the button?
