Laptop just froze(screen blanked out) and no key is working. The laptop is on because there is a green light next to that icon (a lock with capital letter A on it).

What is the problem?

    Hi VUSUMUZI,

    I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

    Could you please provide more details about the issue? May I know where you see a lock with the capital letter A? Is it possible to take a photo of it with your smartphone?

    Do you see the manufacturer's logo when you turn on the laptop?
