every computer i know does a hard power-off pressing the power-button for 5 seconds if all other things are failing
This was about ten or twelve years ago. I'm not sure, but I might have even had them try that. (Please note that even then, their laptop was so old that they needed a screwdriver to remove the battery. Don't know what happened after that, as I ended the call and told them to call back after they'd gotten control of the computer back.) I do know that when it happened to me at home, it didn't matter how long I held down the power button, nothing happened. Only pulling the plug worked. Still, it's nice to know that current computers don't have that problem.
