  1. Power off, unplug
  2. Press/hold power button for ~15 sec
  3. Open case and remove motherboard battery
  4. Press/hold power button for ~30 sec
  5. Reinstall battery (right-side-up!)
  6. Close case
  7. If you're very lucky, it will boot now

If it still doesn't boot, you need to replace the motherboard or shop for a new PC... [:'(]
