PC won't post

Pretty self explanatory, thought it might be a hardware issue ( as in a part not working ) but I'm not sure and I can't verify this. Although what I can tell you is that I have tried switching monitors ( thought maybe the first monitor might not be working. ). The PC is for web hosting, an email client and several minecraft servers that I plan to run on the rig. It's a secluded isolated computer in my closet, it has no case, its built upon a cardboard box and for the PSU to actually turn on, you have to hold a button for it to stay on, although the machine does turn on, nothing posts. The hard drive does spin, and the fans spin although nothing pops up on the monitor. Looking for help...


Specs:

AMD A6 6500 

some board from a prebuilt

4gb ddr3 1333

host bus adapter sas/raid card

2tb sas drive

some dell 250w psu
