badzlibid,
Do you have a backup of your original firmware?
Do you know what version it was?
What did the menu's look like?
What size is your players screen 1.5 or 1.8?

Have a look at tadad's - DEAD PLAYER RECOVERY GUIDE from here.

Please follow that and see if you can get your player back to a good working state.

Please take the time to follow the instructions as this will help relive your player if all goes well.

Good luck.

no backup? uhh sounds bad... seems like you have to try a couple of firms if you don't know your firmwarespecifications and where to get it. hmmm i had to start the update-tool really fast when my pc recognized the player because it disappeared some seconds later again. and i had to try it a lot of times, but i had a backup of my firm.
