It takes a good 5 to 10 minutes for the system to boot up with the music on my SD card, 450 songs. I have the file in a folder labeled MP3. This wouldn't be an issue but this also prevents the unit from bringing up any maps. If the card is not in boot up is quick.

I have the same problem.

Are you sure none of these files is corrupt? My best results were with fixed bit rate 128 bit MP3's and I had 4 gigs of them on an sd card. There have been issues with MP3's, maybe you need a firmware update, use the Garmin webupdater here http://www8.garmin.com/products/webupdater/howtoinstall.jsp
