I think it's the motherboard testing the bios settings or something like that before it does anything else. I have a Gigabyte P35-DS3P and if I change a bios setting or shut off the power supply, it'll turn on for a brief moment and then shut off for a second before turning on again when I hit the power button for the first time.
