Default Re: Player restarting with hour glass

However, when I connect it by USB to my computer, it seems to work fine, although at every startup, it displays the hourglass screen. Once I disconnect the player from the computer, it immediately turns off and refuses to start up again.

Can anyone help me out here please? I posted here because it seems similar to the above problem.
jokeslayer, since your computer is able to access it fine, it could be that your battery no longer holds its charge anymore.

The hourglass only appears when you connect to the computer only when the battery is totally flat (from what i've observed when my player battery is total flat).

So probably you will need to find a replacement for the battery. The manufacturer's battery are a total crap.

It`s like an MP3 Player which plays Music CDs only.
