I have just plugged my 5200 in to my lap top to do updates in the house for a change. Updates completed and sat nav said it was restarting. Instead the screen went white then turned . Now cant even turn it on. Any suggestions??

Have you tried a Soft/Drum roll restart on the device ??? This restarts the devices Operating System afresh

Charge the device for at least 2Hrs "OR" have the device plugged into a power supply
Press and hold the on/off button until you hear a drum-roll sound then release the on/off button.
You won’t lose anything; it’s just like rebooting your PC
I use a Soft/drum-roll start after any upgrade large or small.
It’s also useful to keep in mind for sorting out most minor niggles......
