I guess, you did all the obvious and didn't help. If nothing else work, I think you might want to exchange it. As far as your data goes, I guess you can try to put Ubuntu on USB stick and boot off the USB (if it can), than clean your data. If it is real HW issue, you probably won't be able to boot of anything and in that case, I am not sure what you can do with your data?

I also get no haptic feedback when I hit the Windows key. I should be getting that at least if the screen was 'working' no?

I'm returning it tomorrow. I have to send it back to MS as there are no brick and mortar stores in the UK.

a couple times in the past few weeks, my SP3 also will not turn on.
I've tried everything suggested, to no avail.
eventually, after waiting 10-15 min. it turns on without any issues.
any ideas?
