Specs would be of some use here. Also, what version of your Bios are you running?

I can't see what motherboard you're using, if it's in your sig or something I can't see it because I'm on a phone. Does your motherboard have error codes?

So it does have error codes? What code does it get to before it turns off?

I don't see why this would mess anything up, just take a video start your computer and when it shuts down rewatch the video to grab the error code

Is there a post? Are you running the machine on a powerstrip? It might not be getting enough power. Also is the ram broken? Is there a clear cmos button or memokay?

What about CMOS though? And removing RAM sticks or swapping RAM to different dimms

Could the problem possibly be that it isnt turning on correctly because there is no mouse and keyboard connected?

I only have 4 4gb dimms that are already in the system. Also how is doing the cmos going to help?

No.

Remove some of them, a bad dimm could cause a fatal error. An accidental setting change in the BIOS or different hardware and software configurations could be solved by clearing the CMOS. I'm sure your motherboard will have a clear CMOS button or a jumper to short

Take everything out of it, re-seat the CPU and 1 stick ram, leave everything else out/disconnected....plug monitor into on-board video, switch on see what happens.
