Pavilion dv7: Press esc at the startup problem

I get the Press esc for boot menu message and it crashes it whenever I try to start. I can make it work if I remove the battery and hold down the button to start for 10 seconds or more. I know that it is supposed to discharge the static electricity while doing this, but what else who don't.

I'm shocked that a seemingly independent problem could cause such a problem but after swapping of batteries for laptops with a friends same battery, my laptop has no start-up problems. I tried several times and no problems. It seemed to be too quickly into the routine of starting for something like that, but I guess that my problem is solved.
