Okay so I built my pc today and the case includes a power and reset button. Strangely enough, to boot the pc I have the press both, reset then power to actually turn the pc on. Once its on it works fine but is this normal and if not what may have i done wrong?

It sounds like you have mis-plugged the power button and reset button pins to the motherboard, not a hard thing to do when they come completely split at the pin level. Double-check that all the pins are at the correct spot in the motherboard's front panel header.
