It won't start

My Camaro z28, 1997 suddenly does not start. The engine begins running but won't finally start working. Coils and the crankshaft sensor have been checked but everything seems to be alright. There is no spark in the spark plugs, and I was told it is the computer that is failing.

Buddy, I have a Camaro with exactly the same problem and, effectively, it turned out being a failure in the computer prom.

CommentThere is no spark

There is no spark. I've already checked the optispark and crankshaft sensor and they are both alright. The coil and ignition switch are working properly just as well. What might it be? Does the crankshaft sensor send the signal to the optispark, then to the ignition switch and finally to the coil or how does it work?
