    What do I do if my laptop is deadlocked but I can’t reboot it?


    I was looking to stream a series online but the laptop suddenly froze and will not unfreeze. I figured it was too cold so I warmed it up under my blanket for a minute or two. When i took it out of the blanket the laptop had overheated so I left it out again too cool. The issue is that it has been over an hour and the laptop is still completely frozen, when pressing the “Caps lock” button the light does not come on so I think it’s deadlocked and the on/off button isn’t responding either so rebooting is not possible.Please bear in mind I do not understand a lot about tech and specific lingo.
