When all else fails; try your last chance, the Factory Reset

You may lose all books stored in the machine.

Make sure it is OFF.

Hold the power button and the Home (ā€œnā€) key, at the same time.

It will display its actions.

Wait ... May take several seconds....

If that does not cure the problem, it is seriously broke.

Due to its age, finding a repairman will be difficult.

Some time ago, I found 'Dr.Nook' who somehow transferred everything to a PC, and copied it all to a new 'color' nook I found on eBay. GrandPa loved old cowboy stories.....

I suggest you find another working nook.
