Hi there
My h140 has stopped communicating with my PC.

UnhappyIt starting doing this 2-3 weeks ago. I'm unsure whether it's a hardware prob with the iriver, but I'm fairly certain it is not my PC because it no longer boots on my work PC either.
When plugged in, the iriver tells me it is in USB mode, but the PC either does not recognise the player at all, or, if I go to My Computer, it crashes the window (it returns a 'not responding' message). The moment I unplug the player, it uncrashes the window. This happens on both my work PC and my PC at home.
There is a twist in the tale: my friend with an Archos mounted me (so to speak) and was able to view my files. His computer, which runs Linux, was also able to interact naturally with my h140.
What's the solution? The player seems to work fine otherwise, all I want is to be able to get my files on and off!
Oh, one last thing: I tried to get it to connect in the original firmware with the same problem.
Is the only way out to run a limited version of Linux on my PC? Surely that would have its own problems...
Can anyone help me with this curious query? Has there been some update to windows that's invalidated my connection?
Thanks
Tardy
