DirkDigs2,
The black button on the Non-Redundant Power Supply is the power supply test switch, it is used to test the functionality of the power supply. You can read more on page 25 here. What I suggest you start with, is to take the server to a minimum to post configuration. That's removing everything from the server but the following;
Try powering the server under that configuration and let me know the results.
On a side note, if the server is attached to a UPS or APC, run the power direct to outlet to eliminate that as a cause.

Do you have another 410 that we can use know good parts from to test with? If so I would start with the Control Panel, to see if it is the power button itself.
