There are a few things I recommend trying here:

1. Pull your memory card and use a pencil eraser to gently clean the
contacts on the card's connector. Then wipe it off with a clean cloth
and reinstall it.

2. Give all the socketed chips on the motherboard a gental push to be
sure they're all well seated.

3. Pull the keyboard off, see if starting without it connected works,
then reconnect it.

This problem can often happen because of bad RAM or bad contact with
the RAM card, or a poorly seated chip (especially the sound chip up
near the sound connector, but it's happened to me with others).

It can also happen when the ADB connection to the keyboard and/or
mouse is bad.
