Short the 2 pins on your motherboard with a flat head. If you do not know where the 2 pins are, look in your motherboard manual. They are called Power Reset or something along those lines.

Do you have the case's power pins plugged into your MoBo? The case's power connectors should be near tiny, and there are about 6 of them. Normally they are black.

does the case's power pins seem like they're coming from behind the disk drive? and is it really small with black green red and some other colored wires coming out of it? it has 9 pins and the 10th spot is blocked off as if nothings supposed to be there, i tried to fit it on top, and it did, but it was a bit loose and the power button still wouldn't work. it could be damaged I don't know.
