Probably RAM.
Take out one stick... pow! Startup.
Now it just seems to shut down at random intervals.

... Found a case fan that wasn't moving. The motor was hot as, blades not moving.
Pull it out, open up the rubber bung under the sticker, squirt in some isopropyl alcohol to get the sludge moving, then in with some sewing machine oil (spilled it all over the place of course), put the bung back, sticker down (plus sticky tape because I didn't get all the spilled oil when I cleaned it off) and it's good as gold. Even took off the other case fans and cleaned and oiled them. How thorough!
I don't usually enjoy messing with PCs but this little project has been satisfying.
