Lots and lots of things could be wrong here. does the computer post?? that means does it make a sound immediately after turning it on?? That tells you that the memory is okay and the Bios is functioning. If it doesn't post then I can't help you because there is just too much to do and all of it is hands on.
Try reseating the memory. When you turn the machine on with the side panel off do the fans turn?? Do the hard disk(s) spin up?? Check for loose or un seated connectors. etc. etc. etc.

Best thing to do here is take it to a pro and pay them for their time.
