That will eliminate the hard drive and software possibilities.
another thing
turn everything off again, pull mobo battery(looks like a watch battery)
Then hit the reset button on the mobo. Sometimes it a jumper switch. This will reset all the CPU and memory speed settings in case something got messed up.
put battery back and plug everything in and try to start it up

I wouldn't recommend a novice to **** around with jumpers unless he's going to take the time to read the manual for his mobo.
I did that once.....fried the mobo.....learned the hard way.
