You might have answered your own question!
Your PRAM battery (CMOS to us windows folk) may be dead / dying. Each battery is supposed to output a certain amount of power to keep your computer's settings intact even when it is off.
I would assume your PRAM battery is dead, and zapping it allows you to boot.
Good luck!
