    Looks like the OS image on your tablet is likely corrupted then. Download the OS from the Acer support site (IIRC there are two, just pick the newest) and put it on an SD card, then put the SD in your tablet. Boot into recovery mode and have it reinstall the OS from the zip file. If that doesn't work then the onboard flash has failed and fix will require a motherboard swap. :(

    Make sure you have power applied while you do it. It shouldn't fail unless the storage chips have failed, and then you are pretty much toast anyway,,,
