Default my 93 hatch wont turnover :( help please!

i own a 93 civic hatch and it wont turn over iono why... but heres the story lol.. i was drivin down the road and all the sudden the car just started makin some loud pop noises out of no where... so i pulled over and stopped.. looked under the hood and i thought i would just change the oil because i havent done it in like 4000 miles ago... anyways.. i changed the oil and it turned on.. so i headed home and parked it in the garage... next day i went to go start it.. and all i hear is just one CLICK sound. soo i was thinking it was the battery.. but it ended up not to be that becuase i took it to autozone to get it checked and they said its still a good battery.. so then i take the starter to autozone as well and it seems to be a good starter also.. now im confused and tryin not to give up.. ive also checked the grounds and it all seems to be fine.. the fuel pump is fine also....
im running out of ideas.................... HELP PLEASE!! LOL sorry for making u guys read all this...

thanks YOU!!!

get him a key to unlock it.

Check your fuses and such. sounds like a starting system issue. Distributor, plugs, plug wires, cap, rotor, etc

how do you know your fuel pump is fine? do you hear it prime? If not then its most likely your main relay

Also are you throwing any CEL? Might wanna check your ICM in the distributor

I've looked at peoples cars that have had a suppposedly 'good' battery on test (same with starters and alternators) that were obviously crap. I don't know why that is, but if your motor isn't really locked up (which is a possibility) you might want to charge your battery for about 10 - 15 min with jumper cables and then give it a shot while the 'jumper' car revs the motor.
