Hi,
This is the default setting of the hardware with operating system. The same happens on my computer and the rest. But you don't have to worry about this. Just press any key on the keyboard, wait for 5-10 seconds and it will come up.
Good Luck!
Should this blinking light stay on all night though?
Yes, It will stay blinking till the time you keep your computer in sleep mode. If you don't want your computer to go in sleep mode than change the power option settings by going to start >> control panel >> power option >> choose when to turn off the display.

Try hitting the "Windows" key on your keyboard to bring it out of sleep mode. The "Windows" key is generally found on the bottom row of the keyboard, near the Alt and Ctrl keys, and it has no letters on it, just the Windows logo. That key brings my Windows Vista machines out of sleep mode when other keys won't.
As for the power button, anytime you need to force a computer to turn off, you can press and hold the power button to do so. Usually, you need to hold the power button for 5-10 seconds and it will shut down. Use this option with caution, as it turns the computer off without running through the shutdown process and can cause you to lose data.
Hope this helps.
