Its common for power supplies to fail, and from your description I 
wouldn't rule that out yet. Motherboards used to fail a lot, but modern 
boards are very reliable.

If the cpu cooler and fan are working properly, then cpu should be fine. 
they rarely die.

by the way, be very certain you re-seat the ram properly and evenly.

Anyway, slow booting can be a failing drive, but no video means you have 
other problems. Drives fail often as well, so its possible you have 
multiple points of failure.

The universe is cruel like that.
