iPad screem locked after upgrade

    Need help with this one, went to upgrade iPad mini 1 - 16gb, doesnt have sim card, just wifi.
    Anyway left it downloading the latest ios last night, looked at it this morning and it has an apple on the screen, and what looks like a small status bar underneath, almost at the end, but the iPad wont do a thing.
    Tried connecting it to itunes to reset it but itunes wont connect to it.

    Is there any way I can get it to finish the upgrade, or get it back to the last ios which was working fine?

    Appreciate any help with this.

    I've experienced this issue before with my iPhone/iPod Touch.

    Have you ever jailbroken the iPad?

    I should have actually asked have you jailbroken any device using that computer?

    There were a few jailbreaks that messed with what's called the 'hosts' file in Windows. Do you recall ever doing this? If not, we can rule this one out.

    Try hold both the lock and home buttons at the same time till it turns off then turn it on again and see if it finishes or loads as normal.
