Have you tried using a different power supply? just because the PSU passes a multimeter test does not mean its not the problem.

Have you switched the CPU? a flawed cpu can cause immediate reboots or shutdowns.

If you have access to spare parts and can try the above i would. If not, get a cheap replacement mobo to get you through until you are ready for a complete new build. Its most likely the mobo but that isnt a guarantee.

I failed to mention that I did in fact test with another PSU that was in another computer and is working fine. I also stuck the PSU from this computer in the other and it ran fine. Just to make sure I threw the multimeter on it.
