Put simply the BIOS Settings are not being saved when you power down

Laptop will not boot with battery installed
The Unit is Samsung NP300E4A-B0ASA
First, Laptop will not boot with battery installed. Second, the Laptop will not boot also when the AC Power is installed.
But when I try press F2 (means the bios setup), and press F10 (means save configuration), it runs smoothly as if nothing happens.
When I restart it, it runs smoothly. It just restart and I don't have to press F2 and F10, just like every time when I normally open it.
Before this happened, I used the AC power instead of using the battery alone. The day after I used it, i placed the battery and the laptop doesn't turn on. I take it out and then used the AC power instead and it turned on. And when I placed again the battery and try to press F2 it turn on. Now a few days later, the same situation goes on now with the AC power. It doesn't reboot and I need to press F2 every time i turn it except I do restart and choose to hibernate or sleep the Unit.
What cause this problem? Thank you so much.
