I just replaced my battery while I had the computer open for something else
and after I disconnected the battery and put the same battery back (the
Radio Shack near me didnt have them) the computer wouldn't restart, til I
pushed the cuda button. Then it was fine- scary thing though. Oddly, when I
put the NEW battery in a day later it started up w/o doing the cuda reset
push- guess it's a sometimes-needed thing.
