Turned out great until now, when I restarted to apply the google update. 

After the update, I see the screen with the google logo and "chrome" briefly, then, at that point a dark screen, then, at that point a glimmer of a white screen briefly, then, at that point dark once more. In the event that I press the up button, it will show the login screen, cycles to the screens recorded previously. 

I took a stab at depleting the battery, power restart, and utilizing one more screen through HDMI. No karma. As it would turn out, this happened seven days past the finish of item support.

Thanks.

    This thread is over a year old. Probably get better responses if you post your own new thread by clicking on the green ask a question button.

    A factory reset erases all user data on your Chromebook's hard drive, including all the files in the Downloads folder. It also erases most non-user-related device information, but preserves a few diagnostic and operational pieces of data.
