Sansa recenlty my sansa e250 MP3 player seems to be malfuntioning. For example, Alen Parsons I robot won't play right. The vocals are so low you cant hear them. I don't know why. I canged out headsets so that is not a factor. I am having trouble with other songs as well. This came on suddenly out of the blue. My Mp3 player is genltly used and so no damage to the player would cause a malfunction. Has anybody had a problem of this type?

Make sure the card is a microSD card, not a microSDHC card. The e250 only works with microSD cards, 2GB and smaller.

Please give some more details.
I suppose it's the problem that your Sansa e250 MP3 Player won't turn on.
You could turn to Sansa official support.

Change the hadpone socket

log off your I pod and start again after few minutes

try formatting the player by selecting format from the properties menu when you right click it in my computer.

Try using Windows Media Player instead, and see if you get the same result. If it loads in Windows Media Player, then the problem is with WinAmp and not your Mp3 player. When you say it loads half-way, do you mean it loads half the songs and then shuts off? Is the Sansa running on low battery? WinAmp has some kind of update released in the past week - did you download the update, and then experience the problem? It's probably not this, because other users have had the same problem that you are reporting since at least Christmas 2007.

The following is an advice from another Sansa user, so I haven't been able to verify it myself:
"I have to have WinAmp open and a song playing then connect my player and then it will work fine. If I just connect my player then start WinAmp it crashes"

If all of the above fails, reformat your player and start over from scratch. Let me know how everything works out - this is an issue that not even the Sansa website seems to have an answer for.
