Hi! Month ago on some Russian forums I've seen a conversation about how to workaround if a motherboard BIOS doesn't have "Bootup after power fail" or similar option. The solution was to attach one wire of ATX power cord to ground(or maybe to +5V). I think if you make some google you'll find the proper wire and scheme of attachment. (My internal voice tell me that was a grey wire, but I'm not sure) Alexander Vasenin aka BlackSir > Greetings.
