When I attempt to power on my hp Pavilion s3400f it doesn’t do anything no fans buzzing no display absolute zip. I unplugged it from wall for 10 seconds and also discharged it . I would think if it were ram it would still do something like display a kernel etc . What you all think?

pull the big connector off the mother board and bridge the green wire to one of the blacks , with the supply plugged in should start if not its dead.

Could be just
a broken power button

Could be.
One way to check it is to power up the computer with another power supply (PSU) that is proven to be working. That's what they'll do at the service center.

Most PSUs have a "green light" on them to indicate they are receiving power. Does yours have one and is it lit up when plugged in? If you're using a powerstrip have you tried plugging into a different outlet?

hopefully its not, take it to a computer store and see if they can fix it
