Try pulling the engine coolant temp sensor, They often crack not sure why but the ceramic tip cracks makes the car hard to start, the car's idle may race while shifting gears, and often smokes. The sensor is on the right side of the engine when looking at it on the head. Easy to change and get too

If the problem occurs after the car has been driven long enough to reach normal operating temperature, the problem is the starter. If the 'no crank' occurs cold, retest the battery.

If you get a click, and the starter checks ok; it still may be the starter. I had the same issue just a little while ago, and I spoke with a Saturn Tech and he told me that it was the starter. Replaced it and the car fires with no issues.

Are you using a screwdriver because the ignition will not cause the starter motor to rotate? If so, there are a few reasons that can be:
1) The starter fuse is blown
2) The starter relay is defective
3) The clutch start switch is defective, or the wiring harness is not making a good connection ( in case you have a manual transmission). A similar switch is mounted on the automatic transmission to make sure the car is in park or neutral when starting.
4) There is also a 60 and 100 amp fuse between the battery and the ignition switch that could be defective.
5) The ignition switch is defective.

When you do use the screwdriver, are you putting the key in the "ON" position? This should start the car if the starter motor is in fact rotating.
