      I just bought CM5 laptop.
      I tried to configure the Chromium browser and reboot the laptop to make sure it work.

      After that, the laptop not coming back power on again.
      And even not turn on after pressing power button.
      I pressed it in every possible way (frequently for UMS and hold) but no sign of coming back. (no even Coolpi logo)

      the only clue I can think of is that there is a moment where I want to format my NVMe ssd. I went to Disk app and saw 2 disks. One is named as "SD Reader" (64GB) and another is 8.X MB disk. I thought the 8.X MB disk is my NVMe ssd. I formatted it. After that, the laptop still works. Maybe , it's some forbidden part.

      Thanks in advance.

      PS. I can still see the orange LED when plugging the DC.

      PS2. The green light on the board still work properly.

      PS3. I can still see the board as Unknown Device when connecting it to the Windows PC (But not see in Etcher)

        The 8MB is SPI-NOR memory, which stores bootloader and UBOOT internally. If the disk is formatted, it will not start properly. Don't worry, just update the image again. Provide an update method later.

        Refer to the following document:
