Laptop Power On Problem

I have the most bizarre problem with my laptop. During normal use, the power on/off preforms normally as you would expect. HOWEVER. If the battery dies while it is in use (5% for the critical action point) it will not power back on properly. Instead, the laptop will power on and the wifi indicator will be on but the screen will stay black(no backlight) and the caps lock indicator doesn't flash to indicate an error code. It isn't until I take the battery out and leave just the AC power to run it for between 30-45 mins then replace the battery and hard restart to trigger a proper boot into Windows. It may be worth noting that I have attempted to plug in an external monitor but it shows no signal. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I would overcome this other than not letting the battery die in the first place? Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.
