Hi Guys

Many thanks of the all the advice. I eventually choose the 'remove
card' option. I transferred the packages I had on that card to another
card, then erased that card and now Works, well works! I also did a
reset (using the little button on the back) and left it unplugged over
night and that seems to have solved the problem. This was in addition
to shouting at it and generally questioning the Newt's parentage!

I think that I need to read the FAQ's more and just get more familiar
with the internal working of the Newt so that next time a problem
occurs I am not in a complete panic. That is the problem with the Newt
- I am so used to it just working without any problems most of the
time, that when it does fall over I have no idea what to do!

Any hu, its all good now so thanks for the support guys.

Kind Regards

Dave
