For a first recover get the stock ROM from Advent Vega and flash it, that way your tablet should boot up again (you will loose all apps/data if you didn't do a CWM backup). Then try to flashCorvus5 again. Did you install any app like SetCPU, CPU Master or similar to control the overclocking? corvus5 defaults to 1.5GHz overclocking, which some tablets cannot do for a longer time. Try to set the max speed to 1GHz or 1.2GHz and see if the tablet is more stable.

Don't panic, your tablet is unbrickable (unless you sit or step on it or throw it to a stone floor). Try the following: Get stock ROM for Advent Vega, unzip the files to your PC. Make sure your tablet is really off by very long pressing the power button (30 seconds or more) Then boot into NVidia Flash Recovery by: Press and hold back button, after 2 seconds press power button but don't release back button, after another 2 seconds release power button but don't releas back button, after another 2 seconds release back button. Screen will stay black, but now USB is in slave mode and tablet should be seen by the PC. Flash the stock ROM, then reboot.

Evveryonr goes through this at some point as getting into recovery can be a little fiddly at times.
