jaidagr8st, This problem has been posted by a number of members in the past. I do not think that a fix has been found for it.
You could try to use testdisk to delete the partition as discribed in this post

It may not allow you to delete the partition but it is worth a try.

No sir...when i do that it says.....that the disk is write protected....im in a fix...dont know what to do reallly....or how can i even reach the first step of the recovery guide???anytjing that could help.... :(

jaidagr8st, Did you try deleting the partition with Testdisk?

yess i did....it said error .....i followed the steps as were given...on the last step it said cant delete partition.....

i am reallly confused with the player....when it showed life when i was trying to recover it through the guide i was sso happy...because then this ""disk is not formatted "error wasnt coming....but i guess may be i added some wrong firmware...which caused this....in a fix now....gueess im screwwed:(

okay brother......i have formatted it in the FAT type....now what do i have to do to make it wor...it is showing in the explore as a disk....its jusst the firmware that i have to add isnt it???i added this one 3.5.35 which u had put up in one of the posts 860 kb kinda......and now it got formatted......now what do i update in the player to make it work....please let me know....
