You never can be too sure about advertised '4GB' players. Some are real and some most certainly are not. I've seen pics of 'real' 4GB players and so far have not seen one that looks like that.
Your first option should be to do a low level format of the player with the Mp3 Player Disk Tool, as this will determine it's true capacity and set it up to start copying files. Unfortunately you will lose what you have already copied to it, but you should already have that backed up on your computer.
You're firmware version shouldn't have anything to do with your problems, so whatever you do, don't try to update it because there currently is no way to recover it once it's over-written.
Let us know how you go
