Sounds like either a mobo or a bios problem. Is the video card agp? PCI? If its PCI, have you tried different slots? Do you have the latest bios upgrades? Just a few thoughts.

you should check the power supply, try another good PS, check the litiumbat on the motherboard. As a final attempt, remove everything from the case, examine every part looking for faulty symptoms. Put all the parts together, doublecheck all connection for poorly fitted cables. There is always a possibility to set-up the computer-parts outside the case - just in case to check whether you have a "short" inside the case.
Press the power-on button, if you are lucky - or done a good job - then you will be back in business

One other thing. You said you tried to upgrade to XP SP1 correct? And it told you you had an invalid key.
Have you formatted and reinstalled XP since?
That would be my first attempt to try and solve the problem, unless you have critical data on the HD you can't backup and can't lose.
