Is it POSTing or no?

Give use some more info about your computer, but from the sound of it it's probably your PSU going out.
 
PSU is your power supply unit. The big block that the power cable plugs into on the back.

Still most likely your power supply. Testing it by using a different one is the only way to tell.

Could still be a bad motherboard, but it's more than likely the PSU.
Read this and look at the pics then look over your motherboard for bad capacitors.

Bulged capacitors aren't as noticeable as they look in the pictures though. You can feel the tops of them though and it's pretty obvious if one is bulged.

Theres no way to narrow it past those 2 without doing the above. You're not getting enough power and it could be due to either. Most the time it's the PSU, especially if your computer was prebuilt because they tend to use cheaper power supplies.
