    My Lenovo T520 went to sleep but when I press the flashing power button nothing happens. Normally when I press that button it will turn back on. The little green moon symbol is still lit on the top side of the screen.

    Is there any other way to get the computer to wake up, or to turn it off and hopefully it would work when I turn back on again?

    I'm eternally grateful for any help - this is my work computer and this has never happened before.

    Hold the power button down for some time or pull the battery.
