Default Loss of power?

I've lost power completely in my 85' S10 Blazer and I don't have a clue where/what it could be.
Engine won't do anything...and none of my electronics work either.
I need help getting this thing back on the road.
I have all the tools that i should need and even a Hayne's manual
I've checked everything I could think of.
Maybe I'm overlooking...What do you think? Can you help?

Whats up Matt? Idk why you didn't post this on the Blazerforum, but whatever.
Have you checked to make sure all your battery connections are good?

I've posted it on blazerforum but i'm just trying to get as much help as i can.
and i figured there would be people on here with s10 around the same year as my blazer...and as far as the electronics and engine go they are the same, depending on the year and engine size

Well I agree withdragon, try checking all your groundpoints. You will see one groundpoint on the firewall, one under the engine.
