    It probably overheated. Call Asus or he you only had it for a week the place you bought it from and get a refund or replacement.

    That's called premature (infant) death and it is possible with all the new electronic devices. Send it back to where you purchased it from and ask for a replacement/refund.

    For an interesting read on failure rates look up "bathtub curve" on google / wikipedia. Early failures are a problem with all electronics and are generally full on catastrophic failures not just simple little annoyances.
