I got a GPX ML552B and it wont turn on, and when i plug it into my computer it doesn't show up like my computer doesn't recognize it as a device. I tried letting it charge several times but it still won't work, all that happens is when i hook it up to my computer the screen begins to give off an almost unnoticeable amount of light only visible in the dark, and occasionally when I hold the play\pause it flashes bright white then returns to its previous state. it hasn't worked once since i got it.

SOURCE: I cant get my computer to recognize the mp3, I just want to put music on it.

if your computer recognizes the device as a valid drive (look in 'my computer' folder for it) then you should be able to reformat it. Right click on the device in my computer, click format, quick format. set to FAT format if it lets you. run the format, then disconnect the device and power it back on. it should re-boot and then try to connect again. Try using windows medai player to transfer music. or download Rhapsody and try using that.

SOURCE: Nextar MA 166 MP3 Won't Charge

You have to install the software for the mp3 player BEFORE connecting the mp3 player to the computer, or else Windows XP will override the native drivers. That particular Nextar is not compatible with Windows Vista, so you may have a problem if you have a newer computer.

SOURCE: My GPX player, model number MW259BU, will not

I found that the USB cable provided is junk. I used a known good cable and had no problems.

SOURCE: the GPX drive is not showing

initailly there was a dev. sys config file or something of that nature on the GPX website like a year ago that would allow you to replace and/or access your music and/or the GPX mp3 player, however 2-3 years later they have fixed bugs and put out many other mp3 players so your luck of finding this file is dwindling. try it w/ and w/out batteries and try to go to win explorer as oppsed to "my computer"
