Hi everyone & PRS-600 help needed!

Hi everyone, this is my first post, I just came across this place whilst searching for help with my PRS-600. Ive had it since January and have been experiencing poor charging quality and infrequent freezing, which I now understand can be remedied by using a plug in power source for a proper full charge.

Any way the biggest problem I have got at the moment is this: I was charging my reader up on my PC before I purchased the plug from amazon and i noticed that after a minute windows prompted my with its usual hardware removal sound indicating that my reader had been disconected. Confuses I unplugged it and once it returned to its normal screen i plugged it back in to the same result, except that this time the screen froze.

Thinking this was the typical frozen screen i followed the various reset procedures, but nothing has worked. the screen is frozen with the usb connected screen, but i have noticed the menu page is just barely visable underneath.

As i mentioned I have begun using a power plug in the hope that the book has had zero charge and is simply displaying the last screen as the E-ink technology doesnt require an electronic charge, however after seven hours of charging, there has been no change at all.

Also I forgot to mention that the LED light at at the top of the book doesnt light up in any way, shape, form or colour.

.... please someone help... I've run out of options save for sending it back to sony.

Thanks, Gary.
