Wont install with installation disk without internet

Respected Sir,

I lost sansa installation cd (2gb). Kindly requesting you to help regarding this matter

most of the mp3 players are recognized without installation cd itself.
please answer me the following questions
1. are you using your mp3 player for the first time in your computer or you uninstalled the software and lost the cd .

2. what happens (or shown )in the screen of the player when you connect the device to your pc

a friend told me that if the device shows as"connected" when hooked up (it does) AND the battery charges correctly (it does), then (a)the USB connection had enough juice; and (b) the PC recognizes it - i just had to FIND it. device manager/ MyComputer: nada; same for ANY file/ folder with "sansa" or "sandisk." working thru WMP (Windows Media Player), however, I discovered that drive E - for a portable hard drive, NOT currently connected via USB - was STILL showing up in the "Copy to CD or device" field. sure enough, it was the SanDisk clip player (even though it was NOT under the "Recognized Portable Devices" subsection). without using the installation disk at all, it downloaded tunes just fine. *note: the installation disk seemed to be an .exe file ONLY for the Rhapsody music service. as noted above, it was unnecessary. also - my USB ports are 1.1 and not 2.0, and package stated USB 2.0 was a "minimum requirement" - not true*

Not sure why it wont run but you may not need it depending on your computer, try to connect it with the cable it came with to any USB port on the computer and see if it comes up, if it doesnt open the my computer folder and it may appear there as another device or drive

Reformat clip with disk utility after looking at it like an external disk. Do this by turning it off. Puting it in lock mode. Hold down middle button as you plug it in.

I am mad at my Clip as it did the same thing.

Screen shot here:
Sansa clip not recognized.

The Sandisk website has the software that you need.

Grab the software from Sandisk's website and try again. If that fails, upgrade your XP to SP2 or 3.

You don't need Vista to install the Sansa Clip. Run the installation CD (or grab the software from Sandisk's website), and plug the player into your computer.

Well I'd suggest that you uninstall it from your computer then reinstall it. This is a common solution to most problems similar to this.
