I have posted a thread previously but > can't beleive that NO-ONE knows a solution to this problem.- Just a guess but is it possible that there is a corrupt MP3 on there causing the player to crash? I don't know if damaged format might also cause this, for example if the player was unplugged without "Ejecting" it first. Can you borrow a player to try or maybe a machine to try your player in? |

Did you try a Google search for the model number and a word or two like media player to see if anyone with that specific model has similar problems? Sorry if that doesn't sound too helpful but it sounds like either WMP is broken or there might be a hardware fault. If the port is good for other things then that helps narrow it down a bit. |
