Is my 101tf dead??

[bctony]

I bought a refurbished TF101 last month and a used keyboard dock. I did the upgrade to 4.0 and everything worked fine for a month. Yesterday I turned it off and put on the charger. Orange light and then green. Now it wont turn on. I disconnected the dock and still nothing. The only thing I can get out of it is the green light when I connect the charger. I was thinking about taking it apart and disconnecting and then reconnecting the battery but I thought I should try and get some advise first. Help please. Tony

Welcome to the forum Tony! Before you opened it up, there are a few things you can try. First, just hold the power button down for 30 seconds. If that doesn't do it, hold the power button + volume down until some text appears on the upper left of the screen, then let go and allow it to boot (hard reset). Let us know if those help.

Good advice SS

And Tony - there are various troubleshooting guides linked from the Master Help Guide in my signature, too. Including "how to" dismantle your tf101 if it comes to that.
