What model is it?
Looks like some I have had at work. The GX270s had a terrible problem with bursting capacitors. If any of them look swelled up that could be it. On some of the GX280s the motherboard just "went" and dell had to replace them. Your problem sounds just like what we experienced at the office. I lost a few but another agency I work with lost over 100 of the gx270s. If it is one of these models, your mother board may be shot. No beeps at all? Does the hard drive light look like it is trying to boot up?

I'm not sure of the model. I got it on ebay and the listing is over so I can't go back and look at it. It was from this guy, kinda like this one, he sells alot of them

I'll see if I see model number or anything on it tonight.

No beeps, not sure on light. How much is motherboard to replace?
