Hello:

You could try taking out cards and unpluging power to DVD Etc. You could 
even unplug all hard drives. The idea is will it boot with little 
attached. Even unplug Ram. If it works then add one back at a time. I 
have seen hard drives etc cause this. If it does not boot with bare min. 
then it maybe your motherboard. Check all power plugs. Unplug and 
replug. Clear your CMOS? If you are not comfortable doing all of this 
consider a repair shop. Watch your static when doing this stuff.

Good Luck
