Have you tried a sot-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears) after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

It is asking me to unlock my iPad but obviously I can't
Holding down the Home and Sleep buttons will do a forced restart on your device. Just hold them down until you see the Apple logo, then let go, and try turning it on normally once it's sjut off. Or just keep them held down until it shuts off and turns back on again.
After either one, you should be able to keep using your device normally again, but I would recommend force closing any background apps to make sure your device doesn't freeze up again because it ran out of resources. This article shows you a simple way to do that http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137 .
If it keeps freezing up on you (and you always close down all non-essential background apps), or the forced restart did not help, try restoring the device through itunes (after backip up) and setting it up as a new device: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414. If after restoring it it does not work, it most likely is a hardware problem, and I would contact Apple and let them know what troubleshooting you did so you can discuss available repair options.
thank you for the solution to my ipad problem.
it made my day when it came on again and working okay!
thank you King_penguin,

Have you tried doing the soft-reset/reboot again ?
I have rebooting and switching off it will do nothing
If you connect it to your computer's iTunes does it recognise it, and if it does have you tried restoring to your last backup ?
I can't enter the passcode as the screen only has the
Does recovery mode ?
