You could check the CPU for bent pins. Or maybe the heatsink compound is not connecting properly and the cpu is shutting down. Apart from that the other suspect is faulty Ram. Maybe other helpowlers can offer more specific solutions.
Just powering the board with only 1 stick of ram and the cpu should at least boot to the bios. If you don;t have onboard graphics then you'll need to fit a known working video card.
Hope that helps
