From when I have installed the version F7 of the bios I have found this
problem:
when I try to turn on the computer pressing the button of start, it sets out
but after 1 according to he extinguishes. If I again press the button of
start the computer it doesn't ignite and I am forced to detach the feeding.
Only after various attempts the computer sets out.
For this I have again installed the version F6 that didn't give me this
problem

I really doubt this will help, but i'd swap the reset and the power switch
cables, and try starting it up with the reset button acting as a power
button.
This will check to see if there is something wrong with the cable. It could
damaged or the button may be 'stuck' or something.

Take out all unneeded devices (unhook cdroms, hard drives, pci cards, pcie
cards, isa cards, fans)
It could be one of these to blame(ie, two master drives on same cable), or
it could be the power isn't going everywhere needed.
All just guesses and unlikely, but it's quick and easy to do.

Other than that, this is a stumper!
