    So it said my PC ran into problems and it shutdown so I tried to power it back on but all that is happening is the green light is fading in and out and the computer is unresponsive.

    Help please. :(

    It's as if it's in standby mode or something. Is it bricked?

    Might be a stupid suggestion, but have you tried holding down the power button for a long time to force it to reboot/power cycle?

    Yeah I've held it down for at least like 50 seconds. Didn't work, any other suggestions?

    Is that a fresh install of window 8 or factory install? Do you think it is possible to do a factory recovery, might be that could help

    Yea, if you can still get to the various functions at the start with the F# keys, then maybe you can repair it. Contact support to see if they have a fix. Possibly try draining the battery completely so it turns off as a last resort?
