CANT GET YOUR CPU TO BOOT?

   Check to see if your computer is properly plugged into its power source.

If your computer is plugged into an UPS or surge protector, make sure that it is turned on.

Check to insure that all the different components (i.e.,keyboard or monitor) are properly connected, sometimes connections jiggle themselves loose.

Check to see  if there is a non-bootable disk in the floppy disk drive.

Try booting from a system disk. The operating system files on your hard drive may be damaged or missing.

Unplug your system from its power source and then plug it back in. Sometimes a computer will get stuck in hibernation or sleep mode.
