Talk voltage readings from it. Check to make sure the power button is connected to your mobo correctly, check to make sure that the ATX connector is properly seated, and make sure that the PSU isn't grounding out on anything.

check everything is conencted properly, the plugs etc may be OK but the RAM or hard drive or CPU or CPU fan or video card may have come loose and the system is stopping due to not detecting all required components.

Take it to a trained professional to recover your information.

In the future, purchase and use backup software which will save your data to a DVD or tape.

Try reseating...CPU, G/card, memory & diconnect CD Rom, HDD's etc to see if sys will boot to Bios. If u can try replacing G/c ,mem CPU, if prob still there maybe your M/board.
