Sounds like a bad or low battery. Do you have the Garmin
approved charger / car charger?? You may have to send your 265 in for battery
replacement or try this:
There are three ways to charge the internal battery in your automotive GPS
unit.1
1 - Please note
that temperature can play an effect on the charging of a device. If the battery
registers a temperature of 0°C and below or 45°C and above (32°F and 113°F
respectively) then it will not charge. When connected to external power it will
only be operating off of external power.
2 - The Quest® and Quest® 2 will not charge using a
USB cable.

Do a MASTER RESET for that.

To perform a Master Reset on the nuvi 200, 205, 465, 500, 600,
700, 705, 1200,1300,1400 or 1600 series device:
Note: A master reset
will erase all waypoints or favorites and will restore your unit to the default
factory settings. But who cares if you have problems, right?
The device will automatically reset. Follow the on screen prompts then place
your device in an area with a clear view of the sky until it acquires
satellites.
