My NEC Versa C160 was disconnected from the power, it locked up, I shut it down by keeping the power button depressed for about 30 secs and now it will not start. This is my wifes computer so I'm in deep yogurt. I'm technically challenged, can anyone help

In what way was it disconnected? The detail is rather important.

If you felt the need to press the power button for 30 seconds - why

What made you do that?

I pulled the power cord out out the back of the computer as I wanted to move it to another room. I kept the button depressed as the computer was locked up and didn't respond to ctrl alt del. (it probably wasn't 30 seconds, but more than 10) Thnakyou for your reply Mark
