EDGE GARMIN 500 froze with the logo

Former Member over 15 years ago

I've had my Garmin Edge 500 for some months and it has worked flawlessly. But the last time I connected with my computer and finished the connection the unit froze with the Garmin logo on the screen. I have tried a combination of buttons, holding Power/Menu/Reset all at the same time, then the same sequence and keeping Menu held down and plugging in the USB connection to the computer. When I hold the Power/Menu/Start/Reset all simultaneously the screen goes blank, but as soon as I release them the Garmin Logo reappears. The screen appears frozen with the Garmin logo displayed.
I have tried other button combinations but all have been unsucessfull. I don't know what else I can do, can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.

Hi LUISMAN4,

Probably something "bad" in the memory. If no one helps I can try making region firmware disabling edge 500 from reading gpx, fit etc. files from the memory.

I'm sorry for not replying sooner, I've without connecting until now.

Thank you very much for your answer, the boot block seems to have worked. Really, thank you very much.
