Most laptops go in hibernation mode when they get to hot and sometimes get stuck there. Lets troubleshoot, A hard reset needs to be done in this case. (you will lose any unsaved processes) 1st step - make sure it has power via plug and battery. 2nd - hold the power button until the system shuts off. 3rd - press the power again to turn on. Your laptop should be back to normal. If it is still doing the same thing and there is just nothing showing on screen, bring it to the nearest PC tech and have them do a diagnostic test. You might have a overheated LCD that needs replacement.
This is the way to "hard-reset" the laptop...
1. unplug the power cord from the laptop.
2. remove the laptop's battery.
3, press the power button, for more than 30 seconds, then release power button.
(in theory - that will drain the laptop).
4. reinstall the battery and power cord.
5. Press power button, and see if it works now.
HOWEVER; IF you blew out the fan, AND the fan was allowed to "over spin", you may have damaged the fan.
(Think high speed "whining sound")
The proper way to clean the fan is to...
1. unplug the laptop's power cord.
2. remove the battery.
3. gently place a small wire or paper-clip, into the fan blades, through the grid-work (from bottom of laptop), and hold it there.
4. NOW use the "canned air" (NOT an air from a high-pressure air compressor pump) and carefully blow out the vents (side/bottom/back/whatever).
5. remove any "fluff" that doesn't want to come out, with tweezers, or a small hooked end wire/paper-clip.
6. reinstall the battery and power cord.
I hope this will help.
