Given the description you've given us I'd say hardware immediately. However,
is your monitor on? If so is it plugged in? Does anything whirl and make
noises? Does the power stay on? Does it beep?

First question. When you turn your pc on do you hear any 'beeps'?
Second question. Can you hear the pc fans working?
It could possibly be hardware, but more details are needed.
What PC do you have? Does your monitor light up when you switch on? try to
give us as much information as you possibly can.
 
I'm sorry....i should have give more details. I'm using a DIY (2 years old)
with a P4,xp pro
my monitor does light up,the pc fan is not working and i don't hear any beep
sounds when i turn it on.....it juz flashes red and dies.
 
Possibly a power supply problem then. Have the power supply unit checked.
You might also check the connections from the PSU to the motherboard. Don't
forget to check the fuse in the plug too.
