Galaxy 8 Alarm woes - Please help, it's my birthday :(

Hello all,
Was having my birthday breakfast this morning when suddenly without warning the internal bleeper started going off on my Galaxy 8.
I typed my unset code in but nothing happened, eventually I pressed escape and it stopped.
Now I have a rapidly flashing LED and asterisks' flashing across the screen.
It won't respond to any keypresses (except to beep at me) my set/unset code doesn't work, interestingly neither does the engineer code.
Just wondered if anyone could offer some advice?

A belated happy birthday.
With regards the rapidly flashing light is normally a power fault,either a faulty battery or the mains has gone off for the alarm,sounds like it needs a reset.
Hope this helps.

It wasn't the battery as that was flashing a few months back and I replaced it.
I did power it all down, and after putting the power on it all came back to life, so far no repeat, if it goes again I'm going to default it and reprogram it myself.
Cheers for the birthday wishes
