Default Help engine won't start

Well, I had the engine running yesterday.

Then i changed the oil and cleaned the interior of the car,

And now it won't crank the engine. I tried to jump start with a donor car but it just doesn't even attempt to crank the engine. What the hell could have happened in the mean time? is the anti theft system screwing with me?

Its a 99 GT vert

does it click when you try to start it or just not do anything at all?

most likely the battery is completely completely completelyyyy drained and it will take a good 10 minutes to pump juice into it....

Nope, no clicking no noise at all. It s just likeI Didn't turn the key at all.

Its like its telling me I hate you and i Won't start for you ;-)

AC works. I can take the top down and up. power seats work. Lights work. I am starting to eye ball the sledge hammer and I have only had the car for 3 days.

Sounds like the starters shot to me. Take it off and have it tested at AutoZone.
