Garmin troubleshooting - Help pls

I have a Garmin Edge 800 and tried using it this morning. Upon switching it on the Garmin logo appears and underneath in small print it shows "loading maps". It somehow seems to be stuck on this and doesn't get into start mode.

I tried resetting and all by holding in the top left of screen and switching it back on, but it still doesn't want to get into the start mode.

 

Anybody experience the same problem? Any assistance be will be appreciated.

I had similar with my 705, remove the SD card, if it switches on then it's the card causing the error

My Edge500 sometimes does the same thing. Very frustrating. I found connecting the unit to the laptop for a charge eventually clears the fault. The problem is that you only discover this starting out for a ride. There not time for the equipment to reset.
