Help with M8 Box feezing

[SilverStorm]

Greetings

So I have this box M8 On the sale box it is written OTT TV Box x4 CPU Cortex-A9 8X GPU Mali-450

It started to freeze 5 mins right after being powered on.

Tried the hard reset/factory wipe Pressing the reset button, holding it pressed and hooking up the power. It brought up the context menu, followed the instructions but it froze during the factory reset. Guess it froze before doing the reset because I can still access my box (still freezes after 5 mins).

Tried the hard reset again but i'm stuck with an android boot logo... best I can do is upload this small vid to explain what is on the tv screen and I cannot access the menu anymore.

Great, now it wont even power on! Could not even proceed, downloaded everything, put it on card, inserted the card, pressed on pin, inserted power cable in, it lit and then nothing at all, pitch dark unit.

Well now when I plug it and unplug it, I get a flash of blue light from the led inside the unit and then nothing... sigh.
