Overloaded fake memory & now player won't load
Hi. I bought a 16 GB mp4 player off eBay. It arrived and I tested it with er, that test that tells you how much data is lost/corrupted/OK. It told me that only 1.7 GB of data was OK. However, my brother insisted that the test was wrong, and that I should therefore load my music onto it. I knew the test was right, but did it to appease him. It accepted all the music but, as expected, it was all screwed up and only 2 GB actually existed on the player. Anyway, I turned on the player last night and it seemed okay despite this. I forgot to remove the music as I thought it would just delete it all anyway. Today, though, it won't turn on - it gets stuck on the welcome screen. I've tried to connect it to the PC to remove the music but it still gets stuck on the welcome screen which I assume it needs to get past to connect. So it doesn't appear on my PC.
I've reset it repeatedly but it still gets stuck on the welcome screen anyway. Still won't connect to PC.
Any ideas? I really like the player and I thought I could expand the memory with a SD card. Is there any way I can wipe it, get it to connect to the PC, anything?
Thank you.
