This is the prob with replacing bad caps. Even if you replace them all you still may have issues, it may not be a fix.
Also very easy to damage the board in the process, pulling out via's,through plating etc. Perhaps Cold joints on the new caps
The caps goo leaking also can corrode the board , you may never get a
good connection with the new cap. May even be that some old solder joints have gone bad.

I would definitly NOT recommend try to repair a PSU.
Try another PSU , differnet RAM, remove all front panel connectors & power on with a screwdriver or paper clip across the 'poweron' connector.

Realisticly, better off replacing the m/b, unless you are doing it just for fun or a challenge/learning experience.
