I've got a mobo where the led comes on when the power supply is
connected but powering on does absolutely nothing. I've even tried
shorting the power button pins to rule out power button problem but
still nothing.

Is it dead? Can I do anything with it or is it new mobo time?

Try resetting the bios...
there is usually a jumper new the battery.

YES, a new battery will do no harm.

But you really need the mobo manual. Without 'resetting the CMOS' you're likely
to be wasting your time.
