Acer Aspire only boots on the first time after being plugged in

The laptop has a broken screen and no battery, but when powering on the first time after I plug it in I can confirm that the laptop boots. However, If I then switch it off and on via the power button, the laptop no longer boots/the screen stays dark. The amount of time between powering the laptop off/on via the button is irrelevant, the issue occurs nonetheless.

The LED lights on the laptop still go on and I can still hear the fan working, but it will only properly boot if I take out the charger and plug it in again. I unfortunately don’t have a replacement battery as of right now but I am working on procuring one. Any ideas?

Press F2 when powering on. Does it go into the BIOS screen?

Switching a computer off by the power button can corrupt the hard drive. See what happens if you shut it down by using "Shut down" in Windows?

Another thing to try is unplug the charger and hold the power button down for 30 seconds. Then plug in charger and press the power button. Does it work?
