System files missing

what I just did I had the same problem I sended the iriver back to the company and they fixed it

I fixed this problem for my mate, here's what I did:

1) plugged in H10 to pc that didn't have any iriver software on it
a) I've read if you press the "o" button on the iRiver H10 when connecting it will just connect as a usb mass storage device
2) the H10 now appears as a mass storage device
3) right click on the drive, and select format ( I choose quick format)
4) install the iRiverFirmware updater from http://iriveramerica.com/support/mtpupdate/
5) when you run the updater, it found the H10, then asked if the device was from USA or Europe, mine was from Europe
6) It stated that the iRiver firmware was v0.0, and would install v2.51 (I've seen v2.53 available on the european iriver website but could not download it).
7) proceed with installing the updated firmware
8) on the last screen it says, unplug to complete firmware update - NOTE press Finish first before unplugging
9) switching on the iRiver it 'rebooted' a few times and then when the menu appeared, I connected to the pc and just dropped some mp3 files into the music directory and all was okay.

hope this helps.

I have found a fix for this problem! I saved [backed up] my entire iRiver drive to my desktop and then formatted then H10. I then did a copy and paste of all the system files back to the H10 and, guess what? The H10 fired up like it should have!
I then proceeded to copy all my precious data from my PC back to the H10 and....................................Hurray!!!

To everyone having this problem.....having read all the emails about this problem, I became angry and threw the H10 5GB system against the wall in my office and you won't believe this.....it now works again. I'm not saying that everyone will have this good fortune, but if at least one other benefits from this, I feel that I've helped someone today. Good Luck!!!! Must have been a loose memory or drive connection inside. I will not drop it again.
