The words please wait appear on the screen continuously and no functions work.

it means that your putting to many originals in to be scanned

The fact that Please Wait appears on the screen that the power board is fine. I would unplug the tv for 4 hours and plug it back in to see if the same thing happens. It does appear that you need to replace the main board,

had same problem. I figured it out. While pressing the home key on the bottom of the tablet, press the on/off button until a black screen appears with green words on the side, which says upgrading...please wait...wait. It should take you to the Pandigital screen with a small bar underneath it with green going across. It should work.

good day the main board has a defect so it cannot continue processing

My issue is similar.. however after trying a couple of times it will work. (yes everything is plugged in) It will function for a good 10 minutes before just powering off (blackout) screen.
If you attempt to turn it on after it blacking out, the blue led for the power button will blink a couple of times and it will remain off.
However if you wait 5-10 minutes and turn it back on, it will repeat itself...

I have it hooked up to a radeon X1650 graphics controller as a secondary digital controller, and its hooked up by VGA cable.

I also have two other displays besides this one (one primary and extended that dont have any issues whatsoever.. they continue to function while the syncmaster 193p takes its time snoozing.... please help.

 MS office application didn't install properly .so that only you are getting these type of probems.Try to instatll  it again.

Had the same problem. You will have to hard reset - in doing so you will lose all data on your device. Sorry I know no other way.

Step 1: Charge your device overnight.
Step 2: While holding down the reset button (back of unit) hold the power button down. Release the reset and wait for the Palm screen to appear. When it does, release the power. Press the "up" button when prompted for full restore.

You should now be working. Word of warning: I continue to have problems with HotSynch. The version recommended by Palm (v. 4.1.4) locks up my system, as if it is emulating another device (no buttons work, screen wonky, etc.).

Best of luck!

I have had this problem recently myself and would like you to know that it is possible to fix. The white screen error or otherwise known as "white screen of death" is caused by the lcd color screen on the ipod itself. That is why its functions still work but the screen does not. Once you replace the color screen it will be as good as new.
