Random choices include :- ??

If you add the following info, someone may be able to offer more advice.
Ram size (256 is early 512 is later version which have some issues with certian distributions)
SD card size
SD card type (ie class4)
Distribution on the card.

What does it do LED wise
Do you get any sort of picture.
Have you measured the voltage ( http://elinux.org/R-Pi_Troubleshooting#Troubleshooting_power_problems )
Did you change anything on the time it booted.
Have you reloaded the distribution onto the/another card.

Otherwise its a random guess.....
