Oregon 450t - Won't start properly

I think it is trying to tell me something. We are off to Port Stephens tomorrow so I was loading the Oregon with a GPX file via the GSAK Export function. Everything worked well but when I fire up the Oregon, it gets to the half way mark of loading everything then swithes itself off. When I reconnect it to the PC, it gets to the same stage and falls over. Accordingly, I can't access any files via the PC to delete and start over. Is there a hard factory reset function which can be done without going through the menu system?

Take the SD card out and try again. Sometimes the SD becomes corrupt.
