That happened to my HP. It wouldn't turn on at all. There weren't any lights, either.

I was told by multiple IT techs (Circuit City, Best Buy, HP, and two friends who work for different IT centers) that it was an issue with the motherboard. Apparently the solder point (?) on the motherboard can break, and it's a fairly common problem.
