by cp, you mean pc? Try the most obvious first, make sure the power cord is plugged into the socket and the wall. If that fails, try making sure the PSU cable is plugged into the motherboard. If that doesnt work, you could have 3 possible problems:

Bad motherboard

Bad memory

Bad PSU

Return all items for new ones.

Make sure all your cables are tightly plugged in and that you didn't accidentally pull something out.

Then, for troubleshooting, you can unplug everything accept the PSU, CPU, RAM, Video and see if you get any POST.

You might also try resetting the CMOS, it will tell you how in the motherboard manual.

Ive had this problem before when I first built this PC. It was due to a faulty ASUS motherboard. I think you'll find a new Motherboard will solve your problems. Asus seem quite a bad make to me now. A lot of people I know dont like them. I liked them, until now. They made a faulty Motherboard that I bought Asus A7V600-X. I wont buy any more Asus Hardware now. Anyway, Yes, Try a new Motherboard if you cant fix it any other way.

Sure it could be the motherboard. But it could also be the video card or power supply as well.
You have to swap known-good parts until you find the culprit. It might be time to take it to a shop.

ye ive checked video card and cp u power supply is also fine can only be mobo.

Try to see if your cables are in the right sockets.

Check to see if the PSU is giving power to computer

Remove the memory stick and try a new one.

Check the processor and cooler of it to see if the cooler is connected in the right socket.

Sounds like a mobo to me.
