I know this may sound silly, but have you tried a new USB cable? Also it would be helpful to know the board number. Is it sd036-main-v12? You get the board number by removing the four tiny screws at the top and bottom of the player, removing the back,(very carefully, because the speaker is soldered by two thin wires to the board;if you jerk the cover too suddenly, you might break these connections), and then removing I think 5 or 6 very small screws, and lifting up the main circuit board.The board number should be directly under the LCD display.
In my player the lithium polymer battery is stuck to the board by sticky rubber pads; it does not have to be removed to obtain the board number, but you do have to raise it up to obtain the numbers of the main chip, the ram, and the flash memory.It would be helpful if you could also post this information; I suspect they are identical to my Kaser CamFlix.As I have written in my previous reply, similar looking players to this are all over the place under different brand names; Ematic in the US even sells an upgraded version minus the FM radio, but with a better camera (5 Megapixels still camera; 640 x 480 VGA video Camcorder). Before updating the firmware, it is mandatory that you check the board number first!
