Hey everybody, newb here. did some researching on how to update the 900bt with a how to tutorial that was linked here...and needless to say i failed. i thought i was prepped for it, but apparantly was not. i'm ready to get flammed so do ya'll worst..haha

 

basically, i got to the blue screen, and attempted to upload the win files and after it hit 100% upload, the unit shut off.... and now the result is that my screen does not turn on.

 

however, when i do the four button sequence to get to the blue screen, the screen will turn on, but will power off within 10 seconds......

 

any help would be appreciated...got a long drive home from school coming up after finals...and it would BLOW to have a quiet ride down....

 

thanks in advance

Hold all four buttons for at least 10 seconds and then release the reset button only while still holding down the other three (eject, menu and map). Wait 5 to 10 seconds further and then release just the eject button. See if that works for you.

 

I was having the same problem as you and I believe the above helped me.
