Dont take this the wrong way but lets see if the obvious has been taken care of..... You do have the key turned all the way and the clutch depressed all the way in right?

Does it crank at all or nothing... Little more info might help us out solve the problem. Regardless if you have power for everything doesnt mean its not the battery. Maybe the battery isn't supplying enough cranking power to turn it on. Give us more info to try and maybe diagnose the problem.

Clutch in?
If you're on original battery, try it with another one.

Even if lights and radio work, the battery may not have enough power to start the car. Check battery condition first, and if that's not it, check the clutch interlock switch.
