    Weird starting problem

    Hi guys.

    First time posting on this forum.

    I have a really weird problem with my car, and im not even sure what to search for.

    My car has been standing still for about 2 months. During this time the battery was drained. I got it charged over night and it was starting just fine.
    After a couple of days I was trying to start my car, and when I hit the "start" button all the power died. It was like that for about 10 minutes before the power came back and the car started just fine. This has now happened a couple of times, but today the power wouldnt come back.

    Anyone know what can be the reason for this, or even where I can start some troubleshooting?
