geni , MD5 files are hash files, used for comparing file checksums. You probably won't be needing it for recovering your player.

The upgrade shows successful as the firmware files has been copied into the player ROM. The successful does not mean that your player will work. You'll need to try various firmwares in the downloads section to recover your player.

geni , try formatting your player with the MP3 Utilities Disk Tool (which you would have already installed) and/or HP Format Tool Here first.
See if you still get the write protect error or not.

If it still persists, try using Product Tool Here to flash in the firmware to your player.

If this still does not work, Here is another thread that discusses about disabling the write protect through registry editting.
