No power after error in updating

A few days ago, i received a notification on my Xperia S that said that I have a software update available.  I tried updating over wifi but a message said that i should use the PC Companion.  I connected my phone to the PC via USB and true enough; there was a notification there that said that my phone has an update waiting for me.  I then clicked the update software and it proceeded to intialize.  The progress bar was shown and continued to move UNTIL around 80% where an error was reported: Online Servers are Full.  I read certain topics and discussions here which pointed out downloading and using the Update Service.  I downloaded it and installed the program.  Clicked on the "Xperia S", turned off my phone, held down the volume down button and connected the Micro-USB.  A notifications on my laptop's status tray popped up saying flash device found or something to that effect (sorry, i forgot) but then after around 30 seconds or so; an error message came up saying a problem has occured.  I tried to repeat the steps but now i can't seem to get my Xperia to power on. Can anyone help me?:smileyconfused:
