I used my PC in the afternoon and forgot to turn it off and slept. When I woke up and plugged the PC, the charging light was blinking white and orange repeatedly and the computer won’t turn on. Although I unplugged the PC, the light is still blinking for 4 hours now. Please help, this is my fourth PC in 2 years
