I have a 1995 s-10 4.3 L V-6. Today I started it and drove around for a bit, and then came home and did some work around...when I went to leave for my job I turned the key and the radio and lights turned on, but when I went to start the truck nothing happend, I didn't even hear a click at all...I did a rolling start and the truck ran fine, but once i shut it off I could not start it again. What I'm thinking is the ignition switch itself is bad, because even if it was my starter I would think I would have heard a clicking noise when I tried to start it. Is this a good guess or could it be something else? Any help is greatly appriciated.

Could be a fuse or a starter relay. Check to see if you have power to the starter. If you do check to see if you have power to the starter soleinoid. You may want to check the nuetral safety switch. I don't remeber what it's called on those. It should look something like the brake light switch but mounted on the clutch pedal or the firewall where it will hit it. You can jump that and if it starts it is that.
