If your computer recognize the device, try to format it using your WMP...open up your windows media player and then click on the sync tab..then your device should be listed on the left side...right click on the device name and click format..let me know what the outcome is...

Sansa e260 doesn't recognize my 8GB sandisk expansion card

Sandisk sansa e200 series players only allow up to 2GB expansion, BUT with rockbox firmware up to 32GB is available. Only download rockbox firmware if your familiar with transfering and installing files.
Rockbox firmware can be found at http://www.rockbox.org/

My computer doesn't recognize my Sansa E200

Make sure player's usb menu is set to MSC, so computer will recognize it. Not sure why, but sometimes it helps to try another usb port on the computer. Good luck.

2 - you will have a dual boot up and a choice of which one u wish
