A computer that will not post suggests two possible causes:

1) Bad motherboard;

2) Bad power supply.

I have made an assumption: that you have only one video connector on your system. If you have more than one, try connecting your monitor to other video connectors.

Also, you do not say if the fan starts when you attempt to start the system. It usually starts at high speed and then quiets down.
