Need help guys!

Alright heres the problem...My friend gave me his computer to fix a little while ago. All of a sudden it just stoped working. Wouldn't even start. So I got it, and fiddled with the ram. And came to a conclusion that one of the ram sticks was faulty. I took it out and it worked. I put it back in, and it still worked. Anyways about 2 weeks later, the problem happened again. So this time i completely removed that ram stick which I thought was faulty. It worked. Then just now he calls me saying the problem is happenin again. I have absolutely no idea what the problem could be. I tried everything last time. Please help with some idea's, I feel hopeless to the guy right now.
Thank you...
Chris

Could be the PSU crapping out, or the mobo.

But, then, it could be a lot of things...

so you said you kept the stick out the second time?

Do you know what the specs are?
Tell us the 12v rail and wattage.

It could be overheating, a faulty mobo, or the psu.

We need more information to troubleshoot.
