You're not really turning it off.
You're putting it into standby mode.
Press and hold the power botton down until the screen goes blank.
Once it has shut down completely, press the power button as usual and it should start up.

This solution may sound stupid, but it is affective. Try to press really long time (about 1-2 minutes) on the power button of the laptop. wait for it to shut down completely. Then turn it on to see what happens.

What may have caused this is an update of any sort.

Facebook chat

Do a reinstall of the complete program, these boxes are known to be buggy because facebook doesnt have the best developers. Also try updating drivers, windows updates, and .Net framework is also a good idea. Also if i can clarify the box doesnt show anything, only when you are actively moving the windows you can see a glimpse of what is supposed to be there?

Hopefully I have given you some insight to this problem.
