Try removing the battery pack, plugging in the Newton, and turning it on,
then inserting the battery pack.
Another trick is to plug it in, wait a second or two, unplug, and then plug
it in again, unplug and repeat the process a few times. My battery pack
registered as 'dead' until I did this, and then it finally took a charge,
and has worked fine since.
