I have a HP Pavilion N5190 that won't start up, balck screen, nothing. Fans turns on, that's it. I stripped down to the CPU and fan and get the same result. Is this a f'd motherboard or what? Not that knowledgable, need some advice...

I suppose that the VGA is on-board, so you can't remove it. Only way to tell if it is CPU, PSU or motherboard is to have another one in working condition for the test.

Edit:
Did you remove the RAM also?
