what system do you have?
i have quit a heavy computer, but when i press the direct to button, my pc has to calculate a few seconds before my screen refreshes again. it has to calculate the entire airport database.

Hot favourite is shortage of RAM or Hard drive space, but without system specs it's impossible to be certain.

Could you please tell us:

Your processor
Amount of RAM
Size of hard drive and amount of free space on it
When you last did a defrag
Graphics card details
Sound Card details
Operating System
Does this apply to default aircraft (read GPS) as well as any add-on GPS gauges?

The "Direct To" button does cause a pause for a while even in the best circumstances. I'd suggest waiting it out to see if that's the problem or whether it's really locking you up. It has a lot to load.
