This sounds like a challenge!

ok this may sound stupid but have you made sure it isn't as simple as the USB cable itself? The Touchpad requires all the pins on the cable to charge. So if you have a bad cable and then swap in a different cable.. you need to be absolutely certain the new cable has all the pins. Oftentimes the cables that come with phones only have two pins since that is all they need to charge.

By dead, I assume you mean you are getting NOTHING, no lights no response at all.
