Power supply rant.....

I've had to replace 3 250 Watt ATX Deer in the last three months. When you hit the power switch - nothing happens. Unplug the machine or toggle the on-off switch (the one on the back) and then the power switch works. Tried power supplies on AMD and Intel systems and the problem repeats so I know it's not the motherboard...

Anybody else experience these problems as well??? I'm thinking of just sticking with Enlight cases/power supplies even though their cases don't come in pretty shapes and colors...
 
It sounds like an internal circuit breaker or something that is reset by unplugging/ switching. Is it plugged into a surge suppressor?
 
I've tried them with the surge protector and without - same results...rather annoying!!

BTW - the three systems were all in different locations with different configurations (mobo, cpu etc...)
