Hallo. I have a new Sansa m250 mp3 with 2GB. I am using drag and drop to transfer a bunch o'songs from my computer to the player, but it's not allowing more than, say, 600mb of songs. After that an error window pops up stating it cannot create the directory or file for "song name here". Yet when I check properties, the mp3 will show it still has like 1.6 GB of available space.
The disk that came with it apparently wants me to install WMP 9.0, but the Sansa m200 series lit states one should be able to drag and drop songs from one's computer. . .
Hallo. It turns out that one cannot add more than say 100-150 files in the root directory. I saw this on some forum yesterday, then went home and created a "tunes" folder on the player, loaded about 500 tunes in it, and all was fine.
Now my current issue is that it seems to suck my batteries dry fast. Could be a problem with my 'getting-kinda-old' rechargable aaa batteries, so I'll try a new energizer or something and see if that's it.
Otherwise, I had a couple of happy music-listening hours today. :0)Hallo. It turns out that one cannot add more than say 100-150 files in the root directory.

Can't create directories directly on the m250. I've got about 1000 songs loaded (already broken into subdirectories) that take up 800 MB and the device claims that it's full. (Firmware is also updated to 4.1.08A)
