Hi,
I turn on my Garmin Nuvi 205 and touch the screen does nothing.
After the initial warning/agreement screen goes away the map comes up,
but touching the screen does nothing. Yes, I've updated the
firmware. No, the screen lock switch is not on. Yes, I've tried
recalibrating the screen, but I can push those dots forever and it
never stops!
Any ideas?
