I hate to tell you this, but the hard drive is bad. It probably isn't worth replacing, but you can check ebay for a new HDD as they usually have parts of that nature.

Why did I get a 'fair' comment for this when the problem is CLEARLY the hard drive?! What more is there to say? Hey, how about this, you're a retard for breaking your hard drive!

I have a phillips go gear MP3 player and when i turn it on it freezes only the words www.phillips/welcome.com screens shows. how to i fix this?

Hello

Your GoGear is freezing because there is an error in the operating system and can be fixed by resetting the device. Resetting the GoGear is similar to rebooting your computer. You will not lose any of the data uploaded to the device. To reset the GoGear, press the "Reset" button located on the left of the device. The screen will go blank for a few seconds and then turn back on.

If the GoGear freezes after uploading a file to the device or if one song or sound file freezes the device each time you play it, the file is likely corrupt and needs to be removed from the GoGear. Connect the GoGear to a computer and delete the file from the device.

My GoGear 8G wont come on

1. On you computer, ensure that Philips Device Manager is running.
2. Turn your mp3 player on (it should freeze at the Loading or GoGear Screen).
3. Plug in the mp3 player to your USB/Charger cable (ensure it is connected to the USB port on your computer), and then perform a soft reset (Power switch down and Volume up button simultaneously).
4. Let go of the other buttons as soon as the player resets. Hold the Volume down button until the player comes on. The player will be recognized by Philips Device Manager and will report a problem (and will allow you to repair it). Windows will also recognize it as a Mass Storage Device.

SAMSUNG YH920GS- Error Message- device cannot initialize hdd

You are missing a critical update from Microsoft that will allow the computer to recognize this as an MTP device rather than an MSD device - this is a new problem that did not exist before.

Try a firmware upgrade, but it may not be successful since the repair was unsuccesssful.

Otherwise, get all the most recent Windows Updates from www.microsoft.com.

If none of the above work, write me back.

Error message

Well according to what is says you need to update the mp3 player so connect it to the computer and when you brought the mp3 player it should have come with some software, if it's installed good, no go into the software look for somewhere where it will say up date or something.

If this didn't work or no software was provided visit this site i've checked on here and it has your mp3 player drivers.

http://www.sandisk.com/driverdownload/index.asp

If you were still unsucessful the my final solution would be to connect it to your computer and format your mp3 player by going to "Start" - "My Computer" - Look for your mp3 player on there prefrably called "Removable Disk" once you've found it Right-click, then click on "Format". Once format is complete hopefully the problem will have been fixed.

Good luck. Hope my solution was helpful

Hi. I have a problem even to format the device. Always there's a message that windows had a problem formatting. But there are still a few files left that I can't delete.░ntldr, Ä╤╝≡{Ä┘╕, ï⌠èV$═a.ar, δ<ÉMSDOS.5.0 - these are the files. I used a device manager to upgrade or restore settings but nothing. Is there a chance that is physically damaged and that's why it can't be formatted? I'm using XP. thanks
