[Solved] Asus T100 transformer tablet running Windows 8.1 - startup issue

Asus T100 transformer tablet running Windows 8.1 - startup issue

Hi all,
I'm having an issue where if I restart the tablet it gets stuck between shutting down and starting up leaving me with a black screen.
I usually then have to soft reset it by holding the power button down for 10 seconds after which it starts up as normal.
It sometimes does this after a regular shut down or even sometimes after it's just been asleep.
I have done several factory resets slowly installing windows updates, programs, everything I can think of to no avail.
This is the third tablet (2 replacements)
so I'm thinking it's not a hardware issue.
Asus don't think it's a known problem and I've trawled the net but I haven't found many others having this issue.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I have faced the same problem.
But yesterday I tried to update Bios to last version (216) from http://support.asus.com.tw/.
Asus Live Update in my T100 dosn't show this update, it is necessary to download it from web pages. 

After Bios update everything looks OK, no problems after reboot or sleep.

How to Avoid Downloading Malware

Where are you getting the download?

There are malicious people who download valid copies of a popular download, modify the file with malicious software, and then upload the file with the same name. Make sure you are downloading from the developer's web page or a reputable company.

Cancel or deny any automatic download

Some sites may automatically try start a download or give the appearance that something needs to be installed or updated before the site or video can be seen. Never accept or install anything from any site unless you know what is downloading.

Avoid advertisements on download pages

To help make money and pay for the bandwidth costs of supplying free the software, the final download page may have ads. Watch out for anything that looks like advertisements on the download page. Many advertisers try to trick viewers into clicking an ad with phrases like "Download Now", "Start Download", or "Continue" and that ad may open a separate download.
