Touchpad / Hotkeys issues
1. If the affected key is volume or brightness, check to make
sure you are not at the upper or lower limit for that
setting.
2. If the backward or forward buttons do not work, check
that the same icons in a web browser are not grayed out.
For example, if the back button on a web page is grayed,
this is because the browser is not aware of a page to move
backward to.
3. Restart the Chrome OS by holding down the power button
until the device turns off, and then turn it back on again.
4. Try using the keys in the Guest account.
5. If users experience hotkey issues with the account that is
not the owner (primary) account, delete the user account
and re-create it.
6. If none of the above steps work, try to Reset or Recover
the Chomebook.
Chrome OS issues
If the Chromebook becomes slow or unresponsive, and the
He's Dead, Jim! error message appears, the system could be
running low on memory.
NOTE:
Chrome's Task Manager, the system's task manager, or
with a command line tool, this message will appear as well.
1. If the page was not ended intentionally, reload the page to
continue. If the message continues to appear, try closing
inactive tabs or other programs to free up more memory.
2. If issue persists, please see He's Dead, Jim! from Google

If the Chromebook does not start and displays the message,
