If the system will not even POST try pulling all RAM and rebooting. Does it error out? Try one stick of RAM at a time.
Try booting from another boot source such as a bootable CD or floppy.
Try booting to the Windows memory diagnostic or memtest86 bootable disks:

If still no boot, yes odds are the motherboard is shot.
Can you swap out the CPU in case that is the issue?
