well irecieved e mail today from seller He included simple operating instructios(bit late)he says that as run on xp that driver is not required but no explanation on why it wont turn on unless connected to pc or why when unplugged only the + button works he was only interested in saying i have the hold button in the wrong position.After iyesterdays fun i removed battery for a couple of hours and when tried again the hold key worked in original position once then changed agin WHY? someone must have an answer>

by the way mine does not say samsung but looks similar the one in the picture above and is a 512 black digital mp3 player also with no serial number or model name>I bought it on ebay from hong kong.

Eagle..Hi

I telephoned the UK Samsung offices recently, who advised me to contact Samsung USA? as they would be the ones who would actually produce the chips!!

However, Ive been advised, that without any model number, or name, its gonna be difficult to fix. further investigation, does show that
mine does have a serial number under a BAR Code which reads......J/H:ON512200488 and its says MusicStick on the bottom of the facia.
But still no joy todate. Looks like might have to buy another

If you guys bought your players recently, there should be a warranty still pendig. Read the manual carefully, and if it contains that "..can be formatted" or "Formattable", just bring the gadget back to the store, and they MUST replace/repair it, no cost. If it's not, then...well... Phone tech support.
I have a Fujitsu-Siemens MemoryBird 256MB, and the manual contains, that it CAN be formatted, just like regular HDDs. Never tried it though, but there is warranty for this in this case, if i **** something

At least yours has a Brand name ? Mine says "Japan technology" on the side next to a small 512 indication, and says MusicStick on the front, and is sold as a Samsung memory stick.
My son bought the same stick which came with a VBS/Saraci VIRUS installed.....how cute!! That has been sent back, after we formatted that one to. The seller has asked for it back for investigation,(still waiting for replacement) however, I lost the ability to use mine by trying to copy one to another. seems I uploaded nothing to my MP3 player which has left it useless..Might just have to buy another, put it down to carelessness ? Of the 3 that I bought, only one is still working.the 256Mb.....wont be formatting that one?
That aside.I can still format (FAT) and read write to the stick when its connected to USB, as Drive F: but cant switch the player on when in the hand? Also when in the USB port.the Display is Black, as all pixels are illuminated, so cant read anything?
