Looks like you have a warmup fault. That would most likely be in
the motherboard if the rails do come up fine on the first attempt.
Might be an unusual effect with a power supply that doesnt put
up POWER GOOD until the later attempt that succeeds tho, thats
the grey wire in the ATX connector, measure that to check that.

That's a classic symptom of a bad power supply. -Dave
