I had a reply from the people I bought this off with some useful information in it concerning general use.... Hope this helps
(1)First of all, you should never install the driver from the CD for windows XP, 2000,
and ME. If you did, try to uninstall it cleanly. The CD is for Windows 98 only.
(2)as our players support music in MP3/ WMA format(should not under DRM protection),
please dowloaded some songs in these two music formats and save in your local hard drive
(such as c:\).
The player acts as a portable hard drive when connected to the pc via the 1.1 or 2.0 USB
port (USB 1.0 port is not supported). To transfer MP3/WMA music files between the player
and the computer, simply plug player into the computer with a USB 1.1 or 2.0 port running
windows 2000, XP or ME. (Windows 98 requires the driver from the small installation CD).
After you plug in, the player will automatically be recognized as a "Removable disk". Use
Windows Explorer to transfer the songs between your local hard drive and "Removable disk"
by dragging the mp3 songs from your local hard drive (such as c:\) to "Removable disk".
Once you are done transferring songs to the player, you can disconnect the player from
the pc properly(right click "Removable disk" and select "eject" to remove it from
computer, then unplug it from computer) and start enjoying the music.
Following is how to store and play downloaded songs properly
You can put songs in root directory (music not in any created folder is supposed to be in
root directory) or create folders to store songs. But our players do not support
subfolder(folder inside of another folder).
You can access the music directories you have created with the instruction below:
1). Turn on the mp3 player and then enter music menu. You should be able to see one song
displayed on the mp3 player's screen. DO NOT press the PLAY key yet.
2). Short click the MODE key once to enter the MUSIC submenu. Switch the MODE key
constantly either to the left or to the right to review the options until you see LOCAL
FOLDER.
3). Short click the mode key once to access LOCAL FOLDER sub-menu, then you should see
the directories you have created. Switch the mode key to the right or left to review the
directory options, and then select your desired directory by short clicking the mode key
once. Press the PLAY key now to play the music in your selected folder.
4). If you want to repeat the desired folder, short click the mode key once when the
music is being played. Switch the mode key to review the options, if you want to play all
the music, just select "repeat folder".
