The little loading thing came up in the top right corner but now it won't do anything or accept any input, plugging it into the computer makes the charging light turn red but it doesn't appear as a usb device in my computer. What should I try now?

Edit: Just tried paperclip reset and the MENU + CENTER PAD + POWER BUTTON with no change at all.
Every once in a while mine freezes while powering down (usually if the book I am reading is on the SD card but I think that is another issue) but I've always found the paperclip reset restarts the machine.

The only time that it didn't work was when the battery was completely drained. That time plugging it into the USB changed the screen to the charging notice and then it worked fine.

If neither of those things are working I'd suggest taking it back to wherever you bought it.
