I purchased a sansa c250 players and lost the CD that goes with it I do I install on my computer without it

The software that came with Sansa C250 only contains the userguide and Rhapsody installation disc. The Player itself is a Plug and Play device. Provided that your computer meets the minimum system requirements.

Below is a link from SanDisk knowledgebase for troubleshooting the Sansa if it is not recognized on a computer:

I would run the Sansa Recovery Tool for the c200 series - it will erase/format all the songs without deleting system files - it is available from Sandisk's website.

Am not sure which of the 2 actions we did solved the problem...but we installed the CD that came with it (my daughter has a Sansa C260 and her CD was already installed in the computer and we thought I didn't have to install mine). But we resorted on installing mine too in case it would help with the problem, and then we re-loaded all the songs into my Sansa C250 at a slower pace, although I really don't know if the quicker pace did cause the problem. But now my Sansa C250 is now able to record any song correctly.

if you are a regular user of internet you can download the vista supporting drivers from the parent site sandisk install it and it will easily fix the problem
