that might help.
also, you can see if you're getting spark by taking the spark plugs out and reconnect them to the wires, and turn the key.

someone else that knows more will probably chime in

The check gauges light is on due to teh fact that the key os on without the engine running and there is no oil pressure.

as for the no start this link can guide you through checking for spark, fuel ect ect
