Computer problem that's driving me insane - please HELP

For a few weeks now I have this annoying problem:
When I turn my computer on it sounds like its working, but the monitor stays in sleep mode, and the mouse and keyboard don't seem to work.
When it started I just unplugged everything and powered on, and it seemed to work, but lately even that's not helping.
When I power on, sometimes it sounds like its starting as normal, and sometimes it starts beeping.
I figured that the problem is probably either the RAM or the mother board, but I don't really know

What do you think?
 
Make sure that the RAM is tight, and try taking out one stick at a time and seeing if it starts up. When it does, download Memtest86 as fast as you can, the .iso version, and burn it to a CD. On each stick, if they all work, run Memtest86 on it for a few hours. If you come up with any errors, that stick is bad. If one stick does not start up at all, that one's bad.

Doesn't sounds like the motherboard to me...
