Just to rule out anything case related ... take out the mobo and put it on a table and try powering it up there ... with ram, cpu and graphics card in ... try a different PSU if you can

MoSeS_.

If you disconnected the power switch and LEDs make sure they're plugged into the right place on the motherboard,
if you have the pwr LED and pwr BTN wires mixed up or something along those lines it wouldn't start.

remove all the cards from the board except the graphics card.
Make sure the Graphics card, CPU and memory are seated correctly and try again.

The missing battery could well be the problem.

if its touching off any part of the case it could short the board i know many ppl who have done it including me:D
