Since it's just a DW now, get some PC Games and you can have a blast. There's a bunch of free (good ones IMO) on Steam. If you like first person shooter, there's Team Fortress 2 (my personal fav), or there are RPG, puzzle, fantasy etc...types of games......all free!!
 
If video games aren't your bag, there's always Sudoku.

I'm with ampfixer on this one. It sounds like it lost its program somehow. If I could I would attempt to reflash it. It's been awhile since I used MOTU stuff. I don't remember if they had a free download site or not. You're probably three steps ahead of me already but it was a thought.

Turn it into a time machine (see Bubba for specs), go back to when you originally bought the unit and ask for a different one.

I tried that a couple of times. Both times I made it to the door and thought, "why stop?" and made it all the way to the trash can.

Hope you find out that it is not too much, there Bit!

Is there a way to do a factory reboot? Sounds like it lost its  brain power.

If I could I would attempt to reflash it.

MOTU does provide downloadable firmware updates. Unfortunately, the box has to be able to boot itself before you can do anything of the sort. But if anybody has any other ideas, I'm open to suggestions!

If you don't have a suitable door, you can go traditional and make a boat anchor! Aw....
 
You know you'll get something better!

I had an EMU 1820M interface that I really liked until it suddenly died.  I bought a cheap ($99) interface just to get by.  My 1820 is now just another brick in the wall.
 
I know that's not encouraging, but it's what I had to do.  Hang in there, Bit.
