Probably something wrong in how you put it all together, wouldn't you think?

Questions:

Does the power light on the case come on? If not, then the power supply
probably isn't connected right.

If it does come on, do you get any beeps? If you do, reseat the RAM, IDE
cables, and video card.

If no beeps, do you see the hard drive's or floppy drive's activity
light come on? If it doesn't, double-check the power cables and ribbon
cables to these devices.
