Hi, check the power going to the computer to make sure it's getting the proper voltage. Also check the power switch on the back, make sure it's set for the correct setting (typically either 110 volts or 220 volts). If it still won't turn on, it's likely either (1) the power supply, (2) the motherboard, or (3) the power button. The power supply is the most likely but the power button is the cheapest to replace.
