I was thinking along these lines as well. There could be a short somewhere and the power supply shuts itself off as a protective measure.

Try removing the motherboard and PSU from the case. Place it on a non conductive surface and power up the computer with just the motherboard, CPU, CPU heatsink, RAM, and video card. Hopefully you will at least be able to power up and POST.
