PC Not Responding

If the computer is not responding or is "stuck" on a black screen, please do the following:

Press and HOLD the Power Button of the computer for about 5-15 seconds until it shuts completely down.

Once the computer has shut down, press the power button once more (without holding) and let is boot completely up.

It might go through some "testing" and take longer than usual to boot up because it was stuck and shut down abruptly but it should come back up to the login screen.
