Okay so I tried resetting my tablet yesterday, so that I could return it. The store wouldn't take it back, but they gave me a new discounted one. When ever I boot the tablet up, it brings me to a Blue screen like this one : post-158156-0-80151200-1440119247_thumb. I have no idea how to fix it. PLEASE HELP ME. If I cant get it to work, its no big deal, I have a new one sitting right next to me.

Check the BIOS to make sure it's booting from the correct drive.

i dont know what key to hit for the bios, and im pretty sure it dosent have one...

If its a surface you hold the volume up and down and the power button, if its another tablet I don't know.

Yeah, its a unbranded tablet from best buy.

 

Try various button combinations. On my phone, its power + vol down + home button, and on my android tab it's power + vol down. To navigate the BIOS you might need a USB keyboard, and if not that then probably the volume buttons

I have a windows 8 recovery usb, but the tablet doesn't have a usb port directly on it, what should I do?

 

You might need a micro usb hub. I have a standalone cable (with just 1 usb port without a hub) and it works on my tablet fine

I just tried using different button combinations, but nothing worked.

Normally its a 2-3 button combination, like how it was with the secret menus on the iPod Nano 3rd gen. Press and hold for a few seconds or simply take it back and have them tinker with it, just say it was sold to you like that.

I already took it back, but because the screen is cracked, they wont take it back.
