Mac mini (Mid 2007) won't power on

Hello everyone,

My Mac mini has been off for the past six months and now it won't power on. No LED, no noise, nothing. I checked to make sure everything was set up correctly. All power plugs are snugly in place, and the outlet does indeed work. I am using the correct 110W power adapter and I even tried another one to see if the power adapter is the issue. Both power adapters will work with my Mac mini Server (Mid 2009). I tried all of the suggestions outlined here If your Mac won't turn on - Apple Support but to no avail. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

OK. One more bit of info- After trying to power on the Mac mini with the power supply from another Mac mini, the power supply does not work. If I wait a while, it does, but at the moment, the power supplies won't turn on the other Mac mini I have. Weird, eh? Any idea what that might mean?
