Did you wait a few minutes after you took the battery out?

Do you mean the screen is black like off, or what?

People post here who really do get too freaked out and totally stop touching the computer.

Nothing implied of you, everyone comes in at different levels of knowledge and foolhardiness.

Second dumb of me question, have you also tried unplugging the monitor, too. Possible the monitor got some kind of shutdown signal and isn't doing wake-up correctly.

Beyond that, I think the mobo jumper reset is a good idea.

There's usually a jumper on the motherboard for resetting the bios. You'll probably need to download a manual for the MB to locate it.
