Sounds like you were running on battery power and the battery died. Try plugging back into an electrical outlet. If you are already plugged in, your power supply may be bad. If you recharge your battery and the problem continues, take it in to a repair shop and have them look at it.

I think you might need to charge your laptop.

may of shut down due to heat

looks at all the vents - are they clear

not blocked

perhaps vacuum]

take out the battery for 10 minutes

Put back in and then try

If you can get to bootup screen go into the bios ( f10 i believe- setup menu , could be delete)

Look for " restore factory defaults"

Save and reboot

Make sure you save the changes ( usually f10)

It will take it back to the original settings that it came from the factory

You cannot do a lot of harm and this is the first step

Hope that it is nothing more

Laptops are very expensive to repair

If all that above doesn't work it may be a heat issue. Computers turn themselves off so they don't get damaged if it gets too hot. You might just need to make sure it is getting proper ventilation. Make sure you're not covering the exhaust fan and check the fan to make sure its not backed up with dust.

omg this same thing happened to me like a week ago. i was on myspace and my computer was like 'going into hibernation" i was like NOOOOOO. and then i tried to plug the charger in but the charge box is all jacked up. maybe its just the control box or something!

The heat issue is certainly the most likely thing at the moment....laptops are very susceptible if their heatsinks become blocked with hair/lint etc. A good sign to watch out for is if the fan comes on earlier than usual, or runs at high speed constantly.

The other reason systems do not turn on can also be if the memory (RAM) has become unseated. This is less likely as the system was running when it shut down on you but is worth checking nonetheless.

Hope you get it sorted.
