[NTLK] 2000 not switching on

Since no one else is volunteering a suggestion, I’ll step up.

Remove all power from the unit—this includes ac and any battery power. Allow the Newton to sit this way for a minimum of several hours.

Reconnect/restore the power supplies (as appropriate), now try to power it up.

Hope this helps.

Mahalo,
Forrest
