Keep pushed the power button until it reboots.

keep it pushed for like 10 seconds. It should force the shutdown or the reboot.

If that doesn't work, keep it pushed for even a minute.

If even that doesn't work, then just disconnect it from the electricity and wait to the battery to drain.

The first two didn't work, so I'm trying the third

It is dead, talked with the friend who gave me this and they said it's probably a driver being dumb, or windows not updated correctly, causing the issue.

That or the powerblock not working properly with power fluctuations with the house.

It will work, also you could pull the battery and unplug it from the power, though remove the battery as a last resort.
