Topic: Chumby 8 won't boot

My Chumby 8 will not boot.  Stuck on boot chumby icon for a while and then seems to power off. 
I can't get into "Special Options" menu.  If I press on screen while plugging in power nothing happens, won't turn on.
Any ideas?

Sounds like the SD card may have gone bad.

If that's the case, you'll need to open up the device, remove/replace the SD card with a firmware image burned onto it.
