great thanks

well I flashed two different cards the way it says in the instructions and all I get when I turn it on is a white flashing light (maybe ten flashes) then it stops flashing and then nothing. I guess this means its dead?

You can try doing a manual factory reset. That sometimes helps. Also make sure it is charged.

Hi Davidfor, Thanks,

It turns out that only holding the light button while powering up (hard reset) solves my problem. I will keep the image for future reference.

That is how you do a manual factory reset. The instructions are on Kobo's support site, the MR Wiki and in the Kobo manual.

And everyone who thinks they need an image should try a factory reset first. I expect that it would fix a lot of devices without the need or an image.
