I recently had a similar problem with my standby V2 running 7.1p (Windows). After checking and not finding anything wrong, I deleted the LK8000 executable, and then copied it back in again, problem solved.

Yes. I do have proper waypoint file. Map file UK.LKM Terrain UK_S_500.DEM Waypoints BGA2020.cup
I'm sorry I gave a poor explanation of my problem.
I can set the home waypoint and it jumps to it but when I exit the program and then restart it does not reload the home waypoint. It does reload the task I had set before and all the airspace and terrain. I see now on the screen it is not loading ANY waypoints, only the 3 associated with the task which includes my home waypoint, and this shows in the runtime.log file.
The waypoint file is selected as waypoint file 1.

Extract from Runtime log V7.1p
[376424556] . Waypoint file 0 format: SeeYou
[376424563] . LOADED 0 WAYPOINTS + 20 virtuals
[376424563] . LoadRecentList: loaded 0 recent waypoints
[376424572] . open AirfieldFile <WAYNOTES.TXT>
[376424572] ...... No HomeWaypoint, default position set to terrain center
[376424587] . Reading OpenAir airspace file
[376424624] . Now we have 938 airspaces
[376424624] . OpenAir: 0 airspaces of 937 excluded by Terrain Filter

Seems there is something worng with your waypoint file,
>[376424563] . LOADED 0 WAYPOINTS + 20 virtuals
can you try another file? (e.g. the OpenAIP version)

As suggested by brunotl above I changed the first line of the .cup file to
name,code,country,lat,lon,elev,style,rwdir,rwlen,freq,desc
"Abbot's Bromley","ABB",UK,5248.780N,00154.594W,328ft,1, , ,,"Turn Point, Reservoir/B5013 E, E end of B5013 crossing water, 1.5 NMl W of town. Easy to find and on chart."
but it still didn't load the waypoints.
I then tried bga2020.dat for winpilot and that works correctly.
Problem solved for now.
Thanks.

Good that you are sorted, but here is the equivalent line from my modified CUP file ,which works. On the map it is shown as ABB.

ABB,"Abbot's Bromley",UK,5248.780N,00154.594W,328ft,1, , ,,"Turn Point, Reservoir/B5013 E, E end of B5013 crossing water, 1.5 NMl W of town. Easy to find and on chart."
