Not sure if it applies in your case but the semaphore timeout error in my experience is caused by only one thing - the computer tries to send the USB data too fast, and either the cable is of poor quality or the controller in the player is too slow. Look for an option to disable USB 2.0 mode in your BIOS and use it - it worked wonders for me. Don't forget to enable it back once you're done with your player, as i don't think you wanna wait half a day for that 16 gig flash drive you might have.
