Asus Memopad ME173 Stuck in bootloop, factory reset is futile HELP!

[Shnazzyone]

Searching everywhere for a solution. Out of nowhere one morning I woke up to by tablet spitting out google play errors and then it needed to be rebooted. From there it would be unable to live.

I have tried factory reset to no effect. Bootloop persists. Googling for answers is useless. Everyone assumes I rooted this thing, no I don't have advanced recovery. I just cannot seem to restore it.

I plug it into my computer and all I am treated to is the sound of windows detecting a device and losing it as the tablet cycles through the boot loop.

I never made a user restore, I don't what format file is readable through the restore menu. I got a stock boot room but nothing seemingly I can do with it. I need help and none of the online solutions seem to be working for me.

I seriously need help. ADB does not recognize it. Fastboot seems to hang for a sec before going right back to the boot loop. I have no idea what to do. HELP!

I normally consider myself a pretty techy guy but it's like there's some aspect i'm missing. Restore seems like the only hope but it's like nothing I can send to that card is read in restore. ASUS suggests a special boot that supposedly comes up after holding power button for 10 seconds. That doesn't seem to work. All that happens is it continues my bootloop like it doesn't care.

There may be a solution, for your tablet, there.

Here is a thread from a sister forum specifically devoted to doing a factory reset on the Memo. It's a little more complicated than just holding the power button.
