    Spouse's Chromebook did this and and we were both baffled, but could see that there was power to the book-I knew the illumination setting fix, but that didn't help. The force-power-down, then close and wait 3 seconds was a trick I didn't know, and it worked! Thanks so much... (Although my spouse is now out of bed and on the computer instead.)
