Hi again
I have had some very good info & excellent results using these forums & as I enjoy playing around with Sat Navs , I purchased a couple of 3790 units on the cheap described as not working !
Unit 1 was completely Blank ,nothing at all appeared to be happening , until I noticed it was showing as connected in the (Win 7) taskbar ,checked all the files etc , and to my limited knowledge ,looked OK .
Opened up the unit and both ribbon connectors from the screen were "unplugged" ,I reconnected them and presto , everything works fine .confusing as to how why this had happened , but hey ! good result ,more than covered the cost of purchasing both units .
Unit 2 ....Blank ...nothing ....nada ....
Not recognised by PC , tried leaving on charge 24 hrs ,no change
tried all posted methods of entering pre boot mode ,SD card ,plugged into PC, not plugged in ...no change
poised with cure ready to initiate if the unit showed up ........like watching grass grow !!..no change
Is this what is meant by "bricked" ... or is there anything radical I could try , as the cost of it was recovered by unit 1 , not worried about trashing it ....
Regards
