My computer wont boot unless I leave the power on for 3 or 4 minutes, then hit the restart button. Anyone have any ideas why, and how I can fix this? Thanks

You don't happen to have a Northwood CPU that you are overclocking, do you? Because I had the same problem. When I first did the wire mod trick, I didn't do it correctly so I didn't get a higher default vcore. When I corrected the mistake, my vcore was now high enough to boot up the system. If you have a Northwood, try performing the wire mod to get a higher default vcore. If you aren't, then ignore what I just said. 🙂
 
Try a different power supply if you have a spare. Sounds like a possible power supply problem
