The Super A--I have three Super Programs--has an occasional habit of locking up in a certain way; it's happened to me three or four times in four years, and it may be what you are describing. I've read, and found, that the lockup can often be cured by whacking the back of your camera against your palm several times.
Trying good batteries is also a good idea, though if the batteries are low, I believe the top-panel LCD will blink 0000 or 2000 when you turn the camera on.
