Mine wasn't the battery; had a full charge and white light. Holding down the volume and power worked for me. Thank you so much!

I let my brother check out my computer last night and he said he put it on the charger and put it into sleep mode and now it wont turn on. Has anyone else had this problem? Do you think I should just return the device, since I cant even update it at this point.

Thank you! This worked for me and was a simple fix. I have an Asus laptop that this happens to on a regular basis and I have to remove the battery and hold down the power on button for a few seconds. I then replace the battery and it starts up. It's an awkward fix but it worked great.

2014-06-25T18:39:58+00:00 My new ASUS T100 tablet purchased in April 2014 has the same problem. The only way to get it to power on is to hold the power button down for longer than 10 seconds, close the tablet/mobile docking pad, and open it again. Then the sign on screen appears. Since I purchased it from Best Buy, their "Geek Squad" sent it off to KY for repair and it was returned yesterday with the same problem (and all the others it was sent in for, such as the mobile docking pad keyboard not working).
