This might sound stupid but make sure that the monitor cable is pluged in properly. If that does not work, turn you Mac back on and see if you can hear all the drives spin up.

When you say "it won't start up", do you mean absolutely nothing happens when you push the power button? If so, reset the CUDA switch:
open the case and find the battery. Near the battery there is a very small round button. Press it once with the tip of a ballpoint pen. Close the case and try starting up.
Now if by "it won't start up" you mean something else, then we need more details.
