Okay - thank you for that advice.  I did what you suggested, and although the Tablet made a buzz, it just remained on the Acer screen.  What next?

I did send Acer an email asking a question about the problem.  The response told me I would hear from you within 24 hours.  I still haven't heard a word.  Why???

Beginning a couple of days ago, I too am experienceing the boot problem on my A500 and all attempts to reset have failed.  I assume that you will resolve this issue at no charge as you have done for others once I provide my SNID?  Should I provide it via this forum or through some other channel?

same problem here with mine iconia A100 tap it gets stuck at the acer sceen.

i have manege to get a screen with a androit avatar lying on it's back with a ! in a red triangel.

Yep same here A500 tablet wont boot this morning stuck on Acer or android screen. Tried hard reset. Only 2 years of life out of a tablet is crazy.

As its probably a memory failure, there will be a heap of these devices failing everyday. Lucky its outside warranty period eh Acer

How about my view this originally in Spanish and I use the google translator.
I have the same problem I'm from mexico, my tablet lock and other occasions acer logo starts with the android green monkey standing and then lying down with red triangle above his stomach open. I followed all procedures outlined in internet, without any results. Only two years I will meet with my acer iconia tablet A500 is a 16 gb is not possible, that same day buy an ipod touch, it still works perfectly.
My tablet lead to a licensed care center in my town, at first I said it may be software problem or motherboard, the first thing should be arranged for 500 pesos approximately 40 U.S. dollars, but if the failure is the motherboard, was unaffordable replace it, so I left my device to review and speak to them in three days, this day frame them and tell me that the problem was in the motherboard and that it was unaffordable, better buy a new one, since the card price was 4,000 pesos, about $ 320, so I said they could go through my device and pay the review of 190 pesos, about 15.20 dollars. It is absurd that as a failure of acer, have to pay by check your problems as many of us do not think we all have some blame, indicates that such a coincidence is acer problem. Community Help please, it's a lot of investment for a brick.

  Respectfully, I demand more attention acer staff personnel, to proceed to the following:
1. to call a global review and composure of the device,
2. to reintegrate the cost of review to those already paid and did not get under and for those who have not yet paid and tablet to collect, they indicate its licensed centers that deliver the tablets with the problem solved without charge.
3. Turn in the software or hardware environment has improved without any general failure.
Everything is possible if we continue adding the call to service and big companies have done, out of respect to the consuming client and their own institutional principles.
Also I make a call to the authorities which lie acer offices to discuss the problematic and substantial progress is made in respect to consumer rights.
We are making techniques but what is happening with all the comments in this post and elsewhere on the Internet, can be an indicator that it is a flaw in the product of the company.

I will not give up to achieve revive my tablet.
