You said he replaced the battery and power supply and it still would not start, and then suggested a power supply? Well obviously that won't work. First reset the SMC by removing the battery and AC adapter and holding down the start button for 10 seconds. I would remove the battery and connect the AC adapter and see if you get anything. Any lights? Any sounds?
