Help Tablet will not power on or charge

I left my tablet on over the day and I come back home to see it wasn't on. I plugged it in and it didn't show it was charging. I left it overnight charging (never displaying it was actually charging) and it still will not turn on. I used a different outlet with the same results. I used another charging cable and USB charger on both outlets with the same results. I've held down all sorts of button combinations down with zero results. Here is what I've tried: Hold power, hold power + volume up (and/or down), hold power while touching the screen, and I've done all of these with it plugged in and not plugged into the wall. When the tablet was working (less than a day ago) it didn't have any warning signs of a battery that is forming a memory.

Thank you in advance
 
Ive had this happen to me many times dont panic, first take out your sd card if u have one it, then use a guitar pick or somthing realy flat THATS NOT METAL. to open the tablet, then disconnect all the straps wait 5 scnds reconnect the straps put the case back on and plug it in to charge the charging simble should come back on then press power button and hold the tablet should boot up normaly,
