We just ordered a few dozen ASUS Vivotab Smart tablets running Windows 8 (full, not RT) to run some offline surveys. I'm going to try to post any quirky issues I come across, as I haven't been able to find much about them when searching.
The first thing I noticed is that if the battery is extremely low on the tablet, it will not start. Even if you connect a power cord, you must wait a bit for the system to start up. When the battery is low and you press the power button for a few seconds to start...it will flash orange 3 times. Once it has enough battery, it is able to start normally. These charge very slowly, so if you are at 0% battery...you might be charging for a while before it will start.

Hi,
I´m also having same issue,i conect the charger and isn´t charging or if it´s very slow.
My question is how long you wait to have the tab charged?
my tablet can be charged for 8 or 16 hours but refuses to turn on, power + volume down reset doesn't change anything, paperclip in recessed reset button hole doesn't change anything, pressing the power button causes the orange led to blink 3 times whether charging or not, but no other reaction. What is next? Is this a dead battery indicator?
