okay well this is the creative labs zen xtra... it wont play the music as of 7 hours ago.

it will bring me up to the

which has : rescue mode

clean up :status: does not do anything what so ever.

format all :status: shows a harddisk problem (and thats all it reports "harddisk problem")

reload OS :status: shows a harddisk problem agian.

reboot :status: reboots the mp3 player.

.........

so the main problem seems to be the harddisk.



what i have done so far.

updated the driver to its newest update...

updating the firmware later...

trying some othethings aswell....



ok this is my friends mp3 player...
hes blaming me for breaking it.(story at buttom.)
the mp3 player cost around 250-400$
he says i have 3 options :p.
buy a new one...
fix it...
replace any other parts needed to be replaced.
(i consider that as 2 options though...)

ok the story....

his headphone string got caught around my arm i jerked on it and
it ripped the mp3 player out of his hands...
i coulda swore i saw the headphones unattacthed when it " flew out of his hands".
big argue... but were over that .. but i would really like to fix it.



~EDIT~ fuck wrong general............ need someone to move it :p.

my friend isnt getting his mp3 player back if he keeps this up..

he says " thats bullshit you should pay for it"
me " pay for what... you droping it "
him " bullshit you riped it outta my hands"
me " no just the headphone cord that wraped around my arm somehow.... then you droped it."
him " what ever your paying for it."

im not paying for what he did. i just cant believe how the headphone cord got wraped around my arm like that i mean its funny how that worked out.

this is bullshit all i know is he isnt getting it back the way he gave it to me.

ya theres a problem with that.. when you dont like him he makes sure everyone else hates you for somthing you didnt do.

but then they dont try to give me shit cause when i get angry the incredible hulk wants to run away.
