Frozen screen

Hold down the power button for 20 or more seconds, its works for me.

Hi there!

I've got a brand-new solution to this dead-end problem.
BUT, the downside is that you'll need another similar player.

Here's what I've done to unfreeze my Sansa m230.

1. I've opened the cases of both our Sansa m230s.
2. Connected the healthy one to the computer via USB.
3. After it was connected I've hot-swapped the "Samsung k9k4g08u0m-pcb0" memory chip with the one, which was causing the problem.
4. Finally, I've formatted it through WMP10.

Only synchronizing in MTP mode using WMP11 since.

Hope that helps.
