radio issues...

I was so happy to get my pcmcia for my car. Loaded the songs and it worked perfectly.... until I tried to select a different song. Then it locked up (I guess is the correct term) removed the card and sirius nor fm radio works. Fm doesn't show any frequencies. I am in a near panic. I have searched the forum and can't find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
John

Mods, feel free to delete this panicked post. I was able to reset the radio (pressing and holding the eject button) and everything went back to normal. I did get it to freeze once more but this time the radio and sirius worked properly. Had to reset it again for the PCMCIA to play again. It appears that if I scroll through several songs fast, it freezes up. When I pick songs individually it works fine.
