I have a new laptop Toshiba and it was working fine charging and all but when i closed it went into hibernation mode it won't come back on the power light still on and so is the light that be on when it charges. I tried pressing and holding the power button and still nothing. How do I get it to come back on?
 
Solution
Well, you can always pull power and force it to restart. For a laptop that means unplug the power cord and pull the battery. Leave the battery out for at least 30 seconds (let those bits settle - just to be certain). Put the battery back in and plug it back in to the power adapter.

Hopefully it will start up when you press the power button. Keep in mind that Windows will be a little unhappy with you and will likely ask you if you want to boot into safe mode.

I assume that you don't have any unsaved files that you want to keep at this point :)
