You can try to plug it into iTunes and try to do the update that way. The download might of became corrupted or it can't verify the integrity of the update. You could also try to hard reset it by pressing both the home and power button for about 10 seconds. If all else fails, wipe the iPad back to factory defaults and try the update again. Not ideal but sometimes its the only way out.
