I did run the HP format exe. I ended up with 1.98 in each player, and so far both are still working. So not sure about whether I need to upload the firmware?
One does have a earphone problem, only one side works (Mono) and I have to pull the jack out half way to get stereo, (swapped earphones, still the same problem) But hey….. at least I got 1.98Gb for my hard earned 4GB $$!!. I have written to the seller, lets see what he comes up with; a bad response will happily earn him a negative ebay comment and black listing addition here (with your approval).
Any advice on the upload of firmware, present one is SC85051F 2006/04/25
I previously downloaded your ACI_V3[1].5.35_SC85051F.7z and now have the 7zip program but still have no idea how to run (upload ) it…
Thanks..

Mad_As, since you get 1.98GB, seems a reasonable memory size. A firmware update is not necessary unless you are facing player problems or you wish to change the display screens.
And regarding the earphone problem, i had the exact same problem recently and it was a problem with the earphone socket's solder that broke off from the mainboard. Some slight soldering solved the problem completely.
Would suggest either you contact your seller regarding the hacked memory and the earphone problem. Else you could try re-soldering the earphone socket back to the board.
Good luck.
