Probably the PSU. Can't be a short in the power switch or it would also turn itself off randomly.

Is it by any chance an eMachine? Some of the older ones were notorious for using a power supply that would turn itself on whenever it felt like.

You are certain it doesn't have any of the "Power-on" features enabled correct?
