My system has priapism!

Just pulled Hello Kitty apart and put it back into a normal case.

Part of migrating it back to a normal case (Broadway Com 939PL) involved replacing the mini-itx.com Pico-ATX PSU with one of those Antec Neo ECO 520watt units that Newegg offered as a Shell Shocker Monday.

The system seems to work just fine, but when I power it off, it won't stay powered down.

It powers right back up!

The only way it will stay powered down is if I turn the PSU switch off or unplug the computer.

I'm thinking it may "possibly" be a some sort of short where part of the motherboard is touching the metal case, but that seems a pretty remote possibility since I took great care in assembling it.

Anyone have a suggestion that doesn't involve swapping out the PSU or pulling the system completely apart again? I painted the new case so I don't want to scratch it all up futzing around inside it if I don't have to.
