815 board, 1ghz p3, 512 mb ram. Integrated video/audio/Ethernet.

I've had the board in a PC I've had since new in 2001. It was used heavily til about 2011, then I had it running again about two years ago. It was working perfectly until one time I went to turn it on, and nothing. Tried another good power supply, same thing. No LEDs on the board lit, nothing. I'm decent with a soldering iron, and I've read about caps going bad. Anything else to look for, or anything in particular about this board I need to know about? I know it's not that special as a board but I am a bit sentimental about it. Is it likely repairable?

Searching for Epson Actiontower 3000 486 PC.
