Hi @Krisc12376

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the Chromebook. 

 

Remove any USB drives, headphones, or other external devices. 

 

Please try a hard reset - 

 

  1. Turn off your Chromebook.
  2. Press and hold Refresh  + tap Power 
  3. When your Chromebook starts up, release Refresh .

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
