It is stuck in bios mode. make sure that your harddisk is not faulty because this can cause it not to detect the OS and load. while in that black mode, try to enter setup and see if you harddisk is being detected.
Well, one issue is the CMOS battery, thats why the system asks input for the current date. If the system was working fine before that, then replacing the CMOS coin-cell battery would definately solve the problem. Please get the machine checked by a professional for CMOS battery replacement. Else, let me know if you are comfortable with working inside the laptop and want to replace the CMOS battery yourself.
Hope it helps!
