I've tried:

  • Taking out the battery and running it off of AC.  Didn't work.
  • Running off the battery by itself.  Didn't work.
  • Taking out the battery and AC charger, holding the power button for about a minute, then plugging in the AC charger and powering it on.  Didn't work.
  • Tried different RAM.  Didn't work.
