That switch on the front is probably a momentary close action switch, i.e it's only closed when you are pressing the button. You need to keep the green and black connected to keep a ATX psu going, so that is probably the reason the psu blips on then off. Different switch required (and a temporary test with the green and black connected to ensure everything else is working).

I've never connected orange and brown to get a 20 pin ATX psu working (is that a 24 pin thing ?). Can you just try it without those two connected, leaving green and black connected to see what happens ?
Be aware that these psu's need a load connected to function properly.
