I was getting what you were after that...just the fans going for a few seconds then nothing after the power button was pushed. I would pull the CMOS and then it would fire up again (sometimes). I finally found it was the power button. I went and got a new case with power button. Been running about 2 years no without issue.

Strange. By the sound of it, your problem was worse than mine. And whatever mine was, it hasn't happened again
