Last night, I was reading a book on my MeMo Pad HD7. All was well. Battery was down to around 50% when I was ready to sleep. I closed the Transcover and plugged in the power cord and went to sleep.
I got up this AM, picked up and unplugged the ASUS and took it with me to church. Got there and opened the cover. Nothing. So I pressed the power button... nothing. I did without it.
Got home a couple of hours ago and tried again. Found some instructions to try holding the power button down for a LONG time (as much as 3 minutes). Tried that... nothing. No signs of life whatsoever. I'm at a loss. This is my 2nd ASUS MeMo Pad HD7. First which was purchased end of December/early January would not update the OS, so it went back to the retailer. Picked this one up after receiving my refund on the first - this time at Walmart (January 11). It has worked fine until now. No other symptoms. No odd behavior. No nothing - until this morning when it won't come on.
I have sent an email to ASUS support, though my past experience with them is pretty pitiful at best. I suspect they will want to send me an RMA # and take a few weeks to diagnose/repair/replace/or play games with me- during which time I am out my pad.
So - before I start the agonizing process - anyone have any suggestions to try? I have tried the power button + down volume... that did nothing. I have tried plugging it in (power adapter is working) - nothing. I have held the power button for several minutes. :'(
