[kobo on vacation]

I recently purchased a kobo online through chaptersindigo.ca, and today for the first time when i press the power button, the screen dosent change. The little blue light in the top right changed blue when applying the buttons but the screen always just says Powered off.
Please help, going crazy!

note. when connecting to my laptop via USB, the kobo file only shows the books uploaded. Is it maybe a problem with the software that comes with the reader? and if so, how can i get that software?

thanks
