Strange booting problem.

Hi!
Problem:
Reset via button works fine, but if I power down using front panel button (i.e. leaving mains on), the PC no longer boots. The mobo appears to power up, fans switch on, but I get no booting beep (or any error beeps), and the screens stay off. To get it to boot again I have to switch off the PSU, wait for the caps to drain (there is a light on the mobo that goes off after about 5 secs), then switch back on and it will boot once.
Any help with this would be very appreciated!

Specs:
ASUS P5K-E/Wifi AP (never re-flashed BIOS since I got it)
Core 2 E6850 w/stock cooling
OCZ 4x1GB DDR2 (2 sets of OCZ2N1066SR2GK).
1kw Corsair PSU
ATI 4850x2
2xSATA HD
1xSATA DVD
 
It is definetely your RAM. There might be a problem in your memory if there is no beeps. try to change there places or try some other RAM.
 
Thanks for the reply, and you are correct there was a problem with the ram, but I have replaced my entire system since this thread was started :D
