Invalid Sd
My cobra 5550 pro gps unit seems to have frozen. I assumed someone had " borrowed " my sd card so I replaced it. Now all I get is invalid ad card. With sd card removed I get blue screen showing an sd card but it refuses to go any further. Any ideas would be appreciated. The next step is it falls to a claw hammer. Thanks

Try the reset button below the usb port as shown on page 2 of the manual. If you get to menu where you can access settings there may be an sd card format setting but the manual doesn't mention that it has that ability. I suggest you go here for your other card format options.
To reset unit to factory settings, go to the Settings Tab in the main menu, press Device, and scroll down to Reset.
I hope this is helpful to you!
