A Helpful Tech Tip - Hard Reset

This handy little trick often corrects issues with a Chromebook. It is especially helpful if you find that your device will not power on after being plugged in for more than an hour.


Simply hold down the refresh key and tapping the power key. Give it about 30 seconds and release the refresh key once the screen comes on.


If you give it a try and the issue persists please fill out the BCMS Chromebook & Technology Help Request Form linked below.

BCMS Chromebook & Technology Help Request Form

If a BCMS student is in need of Chromebook or Schoology support please complete the form linked below. The request will be reviewed by the User Support Specialist (USS) and Media Specialist. The student will be called to the Media Center during school hours to receive assistance with their issue.
