Let me get all the facts ..
The machines are new .. in different rooms ..
were they all built at the same time >??
Does it completely power down ?? or Locks up??
No Exploits ...
CPU and RAM problems usually cause locks
the only things involved in the power process are the power supply, the motherboard, and the switch for the most part
I suppose it could be a bad switch too, but not likely, easy enough to test
just unplug the switch from the motherboard and use a paperclip to short the two pins and power it up

it's really low voltage, but I'd stil use a peice of paper or something as an insulator, but you don't have to, I've done it both ways, a small screwdriver works well too
Good luck
