    And ?

    Exact model and version of windows would be useful.

    1. Make sure its off - if the small circle is spinning hold the power button down for 6sec; turn it on again - any better?
    2. Make sure it is off; take battery out; ensure it is plugged in mains - WITH MAINS SWITCH OFF - hold power button down for 20sec; turn mains switch on; turn it on again - any better?
