Default problem starting car

I have a 90 honda crx project car I have been working on for 1 !/2 now I am making good progress with the car( or should i say was making good progress). Now on to my problem. 2 days ago I went to start my car and when I turned the ignition it looked liked lost all power as soon as I did that. The check battery light was on so I checked the all the connections and even replaced the battery cables. I also changed my starter in case that was problem. And still won't start i just wanted some insite on what it could be. tnx in advance guys.
