Disconnect and re-connect all cables including power cables.

Do you hear the RAM test beep during Boot?

Your RAM is faulty or loosely connected to the Motherboard...Since you say that it starts normally sometimes, it might be a loose connection.

If you are very very sure that RAM is not the problem, it must be power.
