When I've had a similar thing happen to be, it was because I put my 
laptop in the bag when it hadn't actually been turned off.   I thought 
that I had put the laptop to sleep, but it kept running.  Then when I 
put it into the bag, the padding acted ac an insulator and caused the 
machine to overheat and lock up.  Then I went to use it again it 
appeared to be stubborn and not want to turn on, but in reality it was 
already on.
