Default problem with starting the car help

Hey all, recently I am having a hard time starting the car. First, when I start the car, the car would turn on and then off right away. At that point, all the light and stereo and other power are off until I turn the key to Acc and back to On again. In order to get the car start, I have to turn it On position, waited till all the noises to be off and then start the car, then it would start normal. This does not happen all the time though, usually when the engine temperature is cold. Anyone had experienced with this problem or know whats wrong with this? I asked around and they said could be the ignition switch or my air idle control thing.
It a 95 Honda Accord Lx with h22a if that matter.

Thanks


mods, I posted this on the accord forum but seem to be no answer so I posted here, hope that is ok.
