Try the Hard Reset procedure outlined in this tip.
Does your Garmin Nuvi 205 or 205W Freeze at Loading Maps?
Does it lock up or stop working?
This
tip will describe how to perform a hard reset of the device, and how to
backup your 'Favorites' in case the hard reset erases them.
A
hard reset (or Clear All User Data)has been known to resolve unit
quirks and strange behavior after firmware updates. It's generally
recommended to perform it after a firmware update but is not required
by any means. However, if you're seeing quirks and strange behavior
with your unit after the firmware update, it is a good idea to do a
hard reset of the unit. It's also one of the first things that Garmin
will have you do when contact tech support regarding quirky unit behavior.
Backup and Restoration Procedure for Favorites:
The Hard Reset procedure has been known to delete your Favorites, so back them up beforehand.
Perform the Hard Reset:
*Note that this will clear all user selected settings on the unit
Ifpossible
after the hard reset, let the unit sit outdoors in the open for about
30 minutes or so to let the unit re-acquire the satellite almanac data.
You have now performed a hard reset of your Garmin Nuvi 205 and 205W.
I hope that helps.
