For starters, read this. http://autoforums.carjunky.com/..._US_HELP_YOU_P20071/ Then maybe have the battery and cables checked.

Have you tried to jump start the car?

If battery and cables arte good, and a jump will not work, more than likely it is the starter. However, GM battery cables are really bad about corroding inside the covers where you can not see it easily.
