Default Unresponsive Touch Screen, Forever Bootup

My hero, which ive had for a year and half now, has broken in 1 day, first the touch screen started becoming very unresponsive and took a about 15 minutes to boot up, and now today it takes 30+ minutes to boot (regardless of switching from darchdroid 2.7 to cynagenmod 7, and the touch screen is completely unresponsive.

Anyone know a fix, or is it time to give sprint a visit, and if i need to bring it to sprint, where can i find the RUU, i believe it was the 2.1 version

I would first try if I were you, taking out the SD card(although a factory reset wont affect your SD data, I still take it out), turning off the phone, holding the home and back keys, and press the power button with the two keys still pressed. You should get into a factory reset menu. Now you press the menu button and it will reset and all your apps and phone data will be erased. If this doesn't work, take it to Sprint and see what they can do. It may be time for a new phone!
