I'm just about convinced that the problem is a bad capacitor but I
donno which one.
The battery keeps the cap charged and the button discharges it into
the power supply to activate it. Multiple presses of the switch can
get a bad out cap to do its thing.
It's something I have been meaning to do for a couple of years now. I
do have a schematic of the startup part of the motherboard. Well... I
did download it a while ago.
