you could try one of those old power supplies u mite find in an old PC, 10+ years old, because the older way to power on a pc, was the button being on front of the PC was attatched straight to the PSu

You need to short pins 14 & 15 (assuming a 20-pin ATX connector). If you have a 24-pin, most of them should allow you to remove the end 4-pins.
Here is a visual reference. .
Ya just need to short the green wire (there"s only one) with any black wire
