Ok, so things we have checked so far are:

Ram seating
fans spinning
i/o cable connection
power connection
dust bunnies
Power Supply


I'm really starting to think something along the line here is over heating.

If you can do this (if you haven't already)start windows either normally or in safe mode if it will..
right click My PC, then Properties, then the Advanced tab and Untick Automatically restart. Then when it reboots, instead of cycling through the boot sequence, you should get a Blue screen with numbers telling what the problem may be....
