No guarantee, but I bet the microSD card is damaged. Unfortunately, that happens every now and then. Flash the image to a new card and see if that helps.

Many Thanks. I think you are/were right. Today I used a new scandisk card to upload the latest V2.92 as I was operating on V2.89. This version will not self update on the Pi. I also updated the latest gui mod 4.31 It took a while but the latest is really good and we are now looking sweet on the display with all the info from all the peripherals on display! Thanks for the help/suggestion. Regards Ant.
