Here's a link for the how to guide for updating firmware..

We can't use it, because our PC doesn't recogonize the MP3 player...

I can't clone one of the good MP3 players to the bad ones, because the S1clone software doesn't support 9.x.xx MP3 players..

The first step is still unsolved for me..HOW TO GET MY PC to RECOGONIZE the MP3 player?

It will recogonize the Good player, but not the hourglass ones....If I can figure out how to get my PC to recogonize it I know I can fix it from there..

Identical in every way except the hourglass ones aren't recogonize by my computer..Any ideas on ho to fix that..I need a How To Guide for Dummies..LOL

My dead player was visible in the Device Manager.Go to My Computer right click select Properties then Hardware then device Manager.It is located under the Other devices and the name is Unknown device.I am figuring out what to do from there.It has a few buttons to click on.I tried to click reinstall driver but as i had said i have no driver downloaded yet.I do not know if downloading some driver will let me correct it.I am looking for the right driver that i do not have any idea yet.
Maybe some whiz here can help us.

Hi, mine is not being picked up at all...didn't see any unknown device in hardwar properties.

did your MP3 come with a disc? maybe a driver on there could be useful..although XP is suppose to recogonize it anyway..

I've spent roughly 12 hours over the past few days trying to figure this out..need to take a break..

Let me know if you find anything useful.

PLEASE USE ONE THREAD PER ISSUE!

Newer version of s1clone supports 9.x version device. You must run it under administrative account.

oh sorry.Just a newbie.

I believe this is the correct firmware.

I don't know what update tool to use??

& I don't know how to get my PC to recogonize the player??

Someone please help!! I've tried the recovery guide & a few other things with no luck.

Help!!!

Hi, Guys I just wanted to let you know I have mine back in action...not fully tested yet, but my Computer is picking them up & firmware is updated..which looks alot better then the original..

I had to find the Firmware from here:
http://mympxplayer.org/full-firmware...152-df800.html

I used the MP3 Player Utilities 4.15 from here:
http://mympxplayer.org/mp3-player-utilities-dc44.html

Then I used this recovery guide to get my MP3 player recogonized on my Computer.

Man I feel like a million bucks!!! I put a lot of effort into getting mine working....I hope they stay that way for awhile....

Special Thanks to everyone who helped me along the way..
