computer will not turn on

We had a power outage and now my computer will not turn on. Is there a fuse in it? XPS 8100

Forgot to mention, have you tried connecting the power cord to a different outlet, without the surge protector?

As there's no sign of life, suggest you first replace the power supply with a 'Known' working unit and see if this makes difference.

You need a working PSU to testing the motherboard.

Generic  ATX power supply units can be installed, with either a 24-pin or 20+4-pin main motherboard power connector and with, or without the On/off switch.

Note: A power supply with four SATA power connectors, is needed. Also, look for power supplies of no longer than 5.9 inches in length.

No.
 
Are there any 'Beeps'?
 
What colour is the power button light and is it blinking, solid, or off?
