Have you checked the fuel pressure? that could be the cause of hard starts.

If you put the key in and turn real real fast, the computer doesnt have time to read the key and it turns the security light on preventing you from starting the car for three minutes. To prevent this, simply put the key in and wait a second or so before turning.

could be a number of things from a bad sensor that reads your key which would make your security light come on to either a bad starter or an opti spark for the reason that your car doesnt start and misses does the starter crank when you do turn the key?
