I get no response from pressing f2 or enter it just hangs
The message says "press f2 to enter BIOS or del to enter CMOS"
Is this a battery problem

What is the EXACT message you see when asked to press either F2 or enter?
It is just possible that your problem is due to the battery on your
motherboard failing and the CMOS losing the settings used by your bios.
If this is the cause then the cure is to replace the battery.
