Unhappy confused PMP amateur



hi all...

got my PMP120 a while back now, didnt even think of coming on here or searching for stuff on the internet or anything; to my loss, it seems...

been researching firmware upgrades a little, finally thought i had my head around the upgrade process but then i realised i didnt have a root file to load the .tar into which is worrying as i remember having one... maybe i deleted it by accident? i hope this isnt fatal... however if i have deleted it, it hasnt been of much detriment to my PMP, or not noticeable perhaps.

so a few general questions if you may folks; i have searched the forums by the way, but a lot of explinations seem way over my head, so apologies in advance if im useless and confused by things which to you seem simple...

1. WMA files wont play. (this seems to differ between PMPs, some have this problem and some dont?)

2. Skipping - even total system crash - when the PMP ges knocked (even slightly) ...(this too seems to differ between PMPs, some have this problem and some dont?) [this makes me want to smash the machine up! ]

3. Root folder (as above mentioned...i dont appear to have one? so im struggling with firmware upgrades and such)

4.) Warranty issues - if i upgrade to a non US firmware (even though im in the UK?...) will my warranty be void? it runs out soon anyway though...

I'd just like to get my PMP fully functioning to the best of its ability! Then perhaps ill look into other mods and skins and such. But i'd realllllly appreciate any help on the above subjects in the hope that the general functionality of the machine will improve as im off on holiday at the end of the month and it would be awesome to have the PMP working a little better than it currently does!

Many thanks in advance!

Jj
