You don't actually need the screen active to do a factory reset:

1- hold the power switch ON for 10-15 seconds to make sure the device is off
2- press and hold the home button
3- turn on the Kobo and it should boot into a factory reset

The other thing to check is that it's charged in case that's why it's not responding.
