So you replace the PSU and you tested the power switch on the case or jumped the motherboard pins for the power switch and there still is no power then the mother board is toast. There's only one test left that's unhook everthing from the motherboard. IDE cables, FDD cables, power cords from all devices, remove any add on cards (video/sound/modem/etc) and remove all the ram if the power supply doesn't start then the boards bad. I have read threw and am a little confused about your jumpstarting of the PSU. Did you take a small piece of wire or a paperclip and jump the light green wire with any black wire? If you did that and the PSU fan didn't start that PSU is bad.
