I just bought an Android 4.0 tablet from china on Wednesday and it worked perfectly till today. Now when I try to power on the tablet, it only goes up to the android logo and stops there and will stay there for hours. There was a little reset button on the tablet and i pressed it but that didn't help. Can someone please help fix it .

That's the usual story with these things. Cheapo Chinese tech products tend to have a rather high infant mortality rate.
So you've tried resetting it. Most likely the software has corrupted because it's buggy. You'll have to find a way of re-flashing it. Maybe available from the manufacturer's website. What make and model is the tablet?
I think these are the peeps that made your tablet...
Shenzhen Ployer Electronics Co.,Ltd
...doesn't look very promising though.
Who did you buy the tablet through, Ebay, Alibaba? Perhaps you can get an exchange or refund.
There are nine million and one Android tablet makers in Shenzhen......and many of them are crap.

It's because vBulletin, the forum software, can't deal with Chinese character webpages properly.

You'll need livesuite, amongst many places I found it at
LiveSuitPack v1.07 USB drivers - Downloads - Android Tablets Forum
You'll need toswitch off the usb option on the tablet - Settings --> Applications --> Development --> Uncheck the box for USB debugging.
switch off fully tablet
attach usb cable to pc
run livesuite
choose “yes”, general and then yes
pick the img file you downloaded from the link above dont worry that it thinks it is c:\livesuit\blah.img – i think it copies it there itself.
hold the volume up key down and press power on about 10 times – pc should then talk about setting up usb
livesuite should then recognise the tablet and off you go.
once you’ve got ics 4.0 on you’ll find it all in chinese
at the bottom of the screen is a bent arrow, “a house”, 2 squares on behind the other and 3 dots in a pile
press the 3 dots
3 options will pop up they are
wallpaper
Manage Apps
System Settings
press the bottom one you’ll know if you’ve got it because WiFi is off is at the top of the list
you want language and input which is a square with an A in it. above backup and reset which is a dot surrounded by a circular arrow and below security which is a padlock.
hit the top option – which is language and that’ll give you language in the western alphabet.
