I disabled the auto boot after powere returns. Then shut down and turned of the mains for an hour or so. PC hung a minute or so after booting.
So....
1: The auto boot after power down isn't reelvant.
2: At some point between a minute and an hour of power being removed the PC is vulnerable to hanging after a boot.
I'm guessing the actual time depends on how long it takes the standby 5V to decay below a threshold. Not sure it's worth trying to evaluate that time and voltage.
Ought to add I checked the CMOS battery and it was 3.05V. Even though Speccy reports it as about 1.5V.
