when the power button is pressed the pc tries to startup and then powers off and then again it powers on automatically?

I'm guessing you mean when you press the power button, the motherboard starts up, then turns off, then turns back on / boots normally? If so, that's normal. That's how ASUS boards boot with an overclock. The first startup is to check the CPU overclock. If it doesn't startup properly, you get a CPU Overclock failed message.
My 2500K on the P67, Z68, and Z77 ASUS boards all do this. I've pretty much gotten used to it over the years (My system is roughly 6 years old now).
I did a build with a Haswell CPU and the same board you had for a friend, and that also has the same behavior.
