Hi. Is it just the sansa's firmware or do they have rockbox installed. Anyway, it is possible that the sansa itself is the other program that's using the files. You may be able to fix the corruption problem by resetting the sansa. I'm not sure how to do that. It's something tricky like hold down the record button whilst you turn the thing off then back on but that's likely not exactly right. I had one of those for like a week. You'll loose everything stored on the sansa at least by doing the reset I'm talking about which is the point. Maybe the sansa would call it formatting it. Unfortunately I can't give specific instructions but I'm pretty sure it's something that may work. ----- Original Message - ---- From: "Ann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "pc-audio" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2008 4:22 PM Subject: Sansa E250 seems to have been completely corrupted
