Does just unplugging your AC from the PSU for several minutes do the same
thing?

Not sure. However last time this worked, flipping the PSU switch
didn't do anything.

Did that several months ago when I was experiencing freezes on a cold
boot. However I'm now having problems booting at all (meaning my
cooling fans won't even turn on)!

I am having the same issue. Not on every bootup but every once in a while.
Usually taking the cover off and wiggling the wire from the heatsink fan to
the mobo will fix it. Sounds like a short to me. Other fans in my pc turn on
it's just the one going to my heatsink that doesn't start up.
