it could be
if it's not your power supply you can always keep it for testing 
You can try jumping the two pins that the power button connects to with a small flat head screw driver.

Think Tim was asking you to short the power switch pin with a screwdriver to see if it boots.

May i ask what the reasoning in shortening the power pin would do?
When i have the computer plugged in the green power light on the power. Supply turns on idk if that means anything or not though

the reason why you are shortening the pin is so that you can by pass the power switch on the pc
did you swap out the power supply with a 100% working power supply |
