Hi,

When I turn on the machine and go to the navigator, I get a blank screen. I can
get to my programs by either unplugging it, doing a soft reset, or a hard reset. But the same problem occurs about every other time I turn on the E-85. I really don't want to spend $130 and be without the recorder for a few weeks (while in repair) as long as I can temporarily fix it this way. Does anyone know what's going on and how I might correct it?

Thanks,
