Check the MB for any bulging, leaking, or ruptured capacitors.
If there are any, then replace the MB.
If they look ok, then do a barebones config with just the power supply, MB, CPU, RAM, video card, monitor, and KB.
If that works, then reinstall/reconnect all other cards and all drives one at a time until the problem resurfaces.
The last component added is the cause.
If the barebones does not work, then swap out the PS, MB, CPU, RAM, and video card.
