I'd like to make an SX164 machine power up whenever external power is
connected. Is this possible?

Are SX164 fully ATX compliant? I know my pc164 and my LX164 have no choice
but to power up when power is applied, if I leave the switch on.

Which switch? Do you mean a switch on the power supply? Mine doesn't
have one, but I could exchange it, if it would help.

The front panel switch is connected to the motherboard. I tried
replacing the switch with a jumper, but nothing happened. Next I
tried shorting the ATX power-on wire (green) to ground. That made the
power supply fire up when I connected the power cord. The motherboard
didn't start up, though. It seems like it needs an edge on the power
on input to trigger something. Now I'm thinking of connecting a relay
to the 5V power (purple) from the power supply, with the output
connected across the power switch. I'm hoping that will trigger the
MB when external power is applied.

Then the SX must be different from the LX... the LX doesn't have a "soft"
power on switch like most ATX motherboards... instead, you short the poweron
signal to ground and then the thing just fires up when you flip the switch on
the powersupply. Or you leave the power supply on (or use one that is always
on) and have a "hard" switch to ground the power on signal.
