Keygrip
You have a bundle of wires/connections that come from the front of the case. Are they connected in the right places and are you sure none have come off as you hook everything up? (Power button connected to reset line, for example)
Also, and this is something that can catch a heck of a lot of people out, there could be a "jumper" which has to be moved (cmos reset) as some boards have this set to "reset" to preserve the battery whilst the board is kept on the shelf. That one little jumper will stop the machine powering up if it's in the "wrong way"
What motherboard is it, btw.
