I have a HP Pavillion DV1000. Since last 2 days, it is giving me starting problem.

When it does not start, then i remove the battery out and then put it again, repeat this process several times and sometimes that works.

I have 2 batteries, sometimes i keep changing on batteries and that also works.

My both batteries are working fine, the only issue is laptop does not start by pressing the 'on' button the first time.

Once the laptop starts, then it will not shut down till i give shut down command.

What can be the problem?

Maybe it's simply worn out.

After all, it is a mechanical part, and mechanical parts do tend to wear out. ;)

I purchased this laptop 2 years ago and have barely used. Power button is not worn out.

Some other issue..

Do you mean that you must perform a [i]forced shutdown[/i] to power off the computer? A [i]forced shutdown[/i] requires pressing the power button for several seconds, or removing the battery.
