nexus 7 wont power on

I was watching videos on youtube when it just froze for a second then shutdown, now it wont turn on no matter what I do. I've tried removing the battery, the "plug it in for a hour". windows can see the device but says the it cant install the driver and also says the device may have malfunctioned. I've tried a professional repair shop, They said they have no idea whats wrong. If anyone knows what is going one please help.

tried that, windows can see the device but says it may be corrupt. I tried removing the battery for 2 minutes, that caused it to start making a clicking sound out of the microphone.

Ugh. Sounds like it might be a more serious hardware failure, like the motherboard.
