Hi,
My Philips hdd084/05 has crashed. WHen turning on it just freezes on the philips welcome screen. Quite loud clicks can be heard inside as if it is skiping the hard disk. Any suggestions? (Cant do a reset due to the software not detecting the player due to this crash)
Cheers.

-   My Dell Pocket DJ will not turn on. There are some mechanical clicks when I press the power button but that's about it. The screen remains blue and shows the Dell logo but that is it. I can't reset it, all it does is click at me. -   Guest

sounds like the hard drive took a dump you may need to reformat totally and redo the firmware as if you dont have the ability to do this send back to the manufact and they do this stu
ff all the time.

I had the same problem with my HDD060 (hard drive clicking sounds & Philips frozen logo). I just kept it plugged into the computer - finally after 15 minutes the player was delected.
Who ever writes the firmware for these should be shot! and i'm using the latest firmware too. Good luck.

Hi , just had the same problem with an archos Av700, what you need to do is remove the hard disk , then get in start formatting then connect the hard disk when the process starts , worked for me ! good luck people !!!

returned from out of town, to find my chd500 clicking loudly, indicating USB connected. I selected it on the start menu, got an I/O device error message. Unplugged it, started it over and now I get the clicks and a frowny face on the screen. The computer no longer recognizes it as a USB device. What's up with that?

After downloading all the pictures from my P2000 it will not work at all. Just clicking noises and instruction to reset. This does nothing but tell me reset again.
Can I do a hard reset?

i want to reformat my phillips key004 mp3 player

Comment by Guest, posted on Nov 07, 2007

When i turn on my mp3 player, the screen with RCA on it freezes and then it says, FAT Error! Plz connect UMS device format. Then the next screen to pop up says, HDD. It also makes a clicking sound. When it does come on, there is the list but no words. I can scroll but no words or music so I have to reset it by pressing down the power button for 10 seconds.

So i have to hold the on/off button for a long time till it turns off.
