I've run into a problem with an ATX server's power supply where in case of power failure, the machine would not reboot without someone manually pushing the button on the front. The motherboard had no bios setting to avoid this, and local service departments were not able to help other than to suggest a new mother board. I ended up making up my own circuit to provide a signal pulse signal to the power supply triggered and powered off the standby power line. Works fine. I'm curious to know how common this problem is and whether there's a more conventional solution to it?
