Try hitting the delete key immediately after switch on. This should take you into the Bios set up. Choose, "return to default settings," save, exit and pray.
It may be some power fluctuation corrupted the Bios settings.

If you have two banks of memory chips, it is also worth pulling out one, trying to boot, if that does not work, plug in the one you took out and pull out the other.

Otherwise it sounds like CPU, motherboard or Power supply. (It is hard to tell what the power supply voltages do under load)
