Alienware 17 R3 won't turn on when not plugged in.

I just noticed that when unplugged from AC power, my Alienware 17 R3 won't turn on (sometimes) when I press the power button. What I have to do is to plug in my AC to turn on my pc. Anyone else experienced this?

I am on latest bios and everything.

i posted this about two and half months ago. it was bios 1.2.12 i think. it's has been a few updates since then and the problem is not fixed.

i don't need them to answer, i just need them to fix this nonsense.

come on alienware, fix this already. it's been too long for you guys not to acknowledge this problem and rectifying it.
