Firstly try holding the power button down for 6 seconds - the system should switch off completely. When restarted it *should* do a normal boot up.
If it doesn't work then unplug the power cord and remove the battery, then put them back & try the restart.
Let us know if this sorts it.
I personally hate the hibernation facility as it's caused many problems, & tend to turn it off!

Did the restart and its working hurrah!!!!!!!!
Thanks for your help
can also be a sign of a failing hdd or a near full one
if you know how, schedule it to do a chkdsk.
[my computer ; right click on local disk c:; tools ; check now ; tick both boxes - will need a restart to do the check on next boot]
