The problem is that one or more components failed.

If you have a PSU tester, you can test if the PSU is still good.

Then remove all the components except the CPU (with it's heatsink) from the motherboard. Power the motherboard on and listen for beeps or if you have a newer motherboard with LED diagnostics, see if that says the CPU is up and it needs RAM.

Add one stick of RAM, repeat.

Add one more component, repeat, etc...
