Well, I am not sure what it could be but I am thinking of something and seeing what you all have to add to it.

Specs in the sig below but back to default clock speed and memory timings at auto.

When I turn on my pc all fans turn on and 800 fan goes to 100% but does not POST at all.
I end up flipping the power switch on the corsair PSU and flip it back and it boots fine. Anyone have an idea on this?
 
i know this isnt very helpful but i have a similiar problem. when i shut down my computer and go to turn it back on, when i press the power button everything powers on for about half a sec and then shuts off. it boots fine when i pull the power cord and plug it back in.

i have also notice that it hasnt done that to me ever since i loaded vista a couple weeks ago, it only happened under xp.
 
I am in vista now but it happens when i am in even a full shutdown state or a standby-hibr. state.
 
Anyone have any ideas?

It just needs a fully clean boot for it to load up fully.
 
anyone? Going to do a system stripdown and see if it is the PS not playing nicely.
 
What motherboard do you have? And which Corsair PSU do you have?

Could be something shorting out your motherboard. Reassemble the Pc outside of the case, with the motherboard on a mobo box, start the PC by jumping the two power pins with a screw driver and see if it boots up normally then. Look for a loose screw, wire, or cable.
 
Went through it , took out my X-FI and tv card. REconfigured my bios completely and working fine it seems now.
