Chromebook that won’t start

Nancy Gibson <nancyjg...@gmail.com>: Aug 27 02:11PM -0700 My son has a Chromebook that won’t start. He may have spilled on it. Also I found an old hp that I don’t know the password for & don’t have charging cord. Wondered if I could get help with these.

Cprossu <cpr...@gmail.com>: Aug 27 04:31PM -0700 The chromebook if it did get something spilled in it is likely a goner (You can try a different power adapter and the basic things to try to reset it, but if it doesn't respond to any of that, the price of the labor involved likely exceeds replacing the chromebook itself). Post the model numbers of both the chromebook and the HP laptop though. You might get lucky with the HP finding a AC adapter at the lab that is the right brand, wattage, and connector. As for the password, if there's nothing on it, you can likely start a windows recovery by pressing a certain key when it comes up, but if there's data you need off it, other steps will need to be taken.   On Wednesday, August 27, 2025 at 2:11:30 PM UTC-7 nancyjg...@gmail.com wrote:

I really don’t know what is on the HP. 

I know my son said he doesn’t have any info he needs on the chrome book
