So this happened 2 days ago, I was going to take a nap and I left my computer on and when I woke up it was off. I went to power it on and it shows my bios screen and then it quickly goes to a black screen with a blinking line

Hello killaxeddie

Can you please confirm if it is a laptop or desktop computer?

If it is a laptop:

> Power it off (if already powered on).

> Unplug it from the power adapter.

> Pull out the battery.

> Press and hold the Power button for 45-60 seconds.

> Put the battery back in.

> Try turning on the laptop this time.

If it is a desktop and is out of warranty:

> Power it off.

> Unplug all the connected power cables and USB peripherals.

> Open its system case cover.

> Pull out the CMOS battery (a round shiny battery that looks identical to the ones used in wrist watches but is a bit bigger in size.).

> Leave the PC alone for 30-45 minutes.

> Connect the power supply and try powering on the PC this time.

If the computer boots normally (or even if it doesn't):

> Put the battery CMOS back in.

> Try booting the computer again.

Feel free to report back if the problem isn't resolved and you need further assistance in this.

Cheers!!
