I bought my shiny red H10 5GB player more than a year ago, and it has always been a reliable player, and up until now, it's been completely bombproof. Not long ago, I went to turn my player on, and got nothing. After a while of trying to turn it on, eventually it decided to eat all of it's system files, thusly giving me the 'System files missing.' error. So, following the instructions, I connected it to iRiver Plus, and got nothing.
My computer no longer even recognizes my player, and when it does, everything freezes up and I can't access it anyway, which is not helpful to me at all.
I have been digging through countless sites, following threads with similar problems to mine, but to no avail. I've tried switching it to UMS mode, and it won't even do that. I disconnected the battery first, reconnected it, tried again; nothing. When I connect it, it says 'USB Connected', so there's nothing wrong with the cords, and my player has suffered no mistreatment over the time I have had it. I can't find any straight answers, and I'm extremely upset about it... this thing was perfect for so long, why has it suddenly become a very expensive paperweight? I like it a lot and I don't want to get a new one.
Please don't tell me to search the forums for an answer, because I have looked, and there isn't an answer available that helps me. I would really just like to get this resolved... I shouldn't have to buy a new player because this one suddenly goes haywire and I'm offered no support for it whatsoever. I don't have the money to buy a new MP3 player every time one suffers another ridiculous problem that nobody has an answer to.
