Starting up and Charging

I have an Audiophase KZ111/KZ112 mp3 player that I have not used in about 4 months. I have forgotten how to turn it on. I read 1 comment here about a snow-boarding cat or something as the welcome screen. But, since I can't turn it on, I can't listen to my music. When I plug it in to my hard drive, I see a picture of my mp3 and a computer sleeping. Above that computer, I see a bar that is continuously filling up and letting it all out. I have tried charging it for more than 10 hours, but it still shows the bar filling up and letting it all out. Please respond soon so I can listen to my music.
