When you turn on the power do the fans turn on then off really quickly or does it just set there and do nothing.

have you checked up on RAM? try removing and reinserting it.
i dont know what is causing the problem but this tipically happens when the RAM isnt sitting properly.
u can try also cleaning the contacts on the stick with a rubber before reinserting it.
good luck.
