I strongly recommend you get a few of Ken Stone's power supply delay
boards:

Although you may have a power supply big enough for the steady state
operation of your modules, it's quite common for those modules to suck
too much power during the initial start up phase which can cause your
power supply to go into a brain dead mode. I was having no end of
problems with this for several years until I got some of Ken's boards.
Since installing these in every cabinet I have not had one problem
with power at startup. And, it's way cool when I turn on the power bar
and hear all these relays click a half second apart. Manly, yes, very
manly.
