it's probably a busted motherboard
haha i used to work at UMart back in 2007 for a 6 week stint while their usual warranty clerk was on holiday back in china... failing motherboards was pretty common... there is also it could be the PSU is not feeding enough power through because it's faulty also
if the shop is decent they have a whole set of known good components to pair it with and will isolation test all of the parts and identify which component is broken
it can even be a dead cpu, that happens sometimes too, but the motherboards are probably the most complex and most likely therefore to fail
