HI MY TABLET WON'T SUDDENLY TURN ON. I HAD TRIED CHARGING IT BUT IT WON'T CHARGE SO I WAS THINKING THAT IT MIGHT BE A BATTERY PROBLEM HOWEVER I WASN'T SO SURE ABOUT THIS SINCE EVEN IF IT MAY HAVE A BATTERY PROBLEM, I CONCLUDED THAT IT MAY STILL CHARGE BUT WOULD ONLY GET DRAINED FASTER THAN IT USUALLY DOES. HOW TO CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

    It's old enough that the battery could be the problem, but more likely is the power supply. Do you have a different power supply to test that meets spec? If not do you have a way to test the output voltage on your supply? There's also a potential problem that crops up if you've left it a long period of time without the charger connected. If the battery gets drained beyond a certain point it will no longer take a charge.
