wow... glad I found this spot off google and also glad I'm not the only one experiencing this rather annoying issue. Though, TokyoDan, I don't think it has to do w/firmware. I too have never experienced this issue until now, but I downgraded to the previous firmware and it doesn't matter. Same annoying chirp noise. I think it has to do with a worn-out flash memory. Flash has a predefined life doesn't it? So many X writes. It appears the OP's iriver is brand new, though maybe it's a refurbished? In any case, I wonder what we can do about this one.... my warranty is up, I have a 795 series 512MB and this really sucks. The only reason why I kept it was for the recording. Maybe it's ebay time?
