Hi,

Try to charge it with another cable (not from PC USB port).

Try to enter the tablet into download mode or android recovery menu. (VolUp+Power or VolDwn+Power).

If the tablet doesn't go into this modes, you have a hardware problem. This can be:

- bad battery

- broken charging port, charging lines or i.c.

- problem with the mother board

In this situation, the tablet must be opened and checked from the inside.

Regards.
