3. Look closely at the GPS output that is displayed in the View Status
menu. Data should be flowing even when the GPS receiver has not locked
in the position.
The data string that begins:
GPGSV... is "bad data" because the receiver has not locked
into the satellites.
Whereas:
GPGSA... is "good data" indicating that the receiver has
locked into the satellites. Remember - "A-Okay"
4. Once the data is flowing, go outside away from buildings, select
the Satellites tab (Tools>GPS Status>Satellites), and watch
the satellite signal strength

I have had a frozen screen on my TOM TOM - I solved this problem by resetting the TOM TOM. I did this by pressing the pinhole reset buttom on the back of the unit - labled RESET.
Sounds like your firmware is corrupted. I have fixed a few 910's with this same problem. If you have the Tom Tom Home program installed, try to reinstall the firmware using Tom Tom's website.
Make sure you always select to disconnect the device before unplugging it. You might have unplugged it from the PC while it was still writing data. This will certainly corrupt the firmware.
