It sounds like you've done most of the things you would reasonably be expected to do to make it function; since it is only 2 months old I would strongly urge you to go back to the retailer and make them replace it or refund you, as your rights in most countries/states allow.
If you're set against doing this, try holding down the power and volume down key for at least ten seconds to see if this boots it into hard reset mode. If this doesn't do anything, try again holding down power with each of the other buttons to see if you can activate any other developer/reset modes.
However, I have read reports that this particular tablet has up to a 40% failure rate in its first six months.
If you can possibly get it refunded, do that and buy something else.
Don't most electrical/electronic equipment have a 12 month warranty at lest, Batteries 6 months, well here in Aus it's how I am aware it is. Anyway if you can and have warranty take it back, that's all I can suggest.
Depending on WHEN your tablet was purchased, you can send it back to Archos to be repaired. (via their website http://www.archos.com/support/). I have broken the pin off in mine TWICE since I got it last November and both times I sent it back to Archos to fix free of charge. They paid for shipping and repaired it for free even though it was MY FAULT! so far there were no questions asked! I have been very pleased with their customer service (even tho i have never talked to a real person they have handled the issue and I am extremely happy). there are 2 issies w/returning it however, 1. you LOSE ALL YORU DATA. they wipe it out. I tried doing a back up and then reloading it to my tablet when i got it back but haven't been able to figure out how to get it back on. 2. You will be w/out your tablet for about a month! :( Good luck!!!!!
