    I built a nice machine. But when I push the power button to turn it on, it won't boot up. I have to push the button 3 or 4 times before I hear the post beep. But when it is on, it rocks and run rock solid. Any ideas as to why it does this?

    Maybe there is a delay? Some computers take up to 15-20 seconds to actually turn on.
    If not, then check out the switch.

    U know what it might be is your front panel wires to the power button. You could have a short or somthing like that. Try changing the Panel wires and see if that works and let me know the progress.
