I have a Sandisk Sansa e250. Lately the sound won't work. When I first turn it on the volume is at medium, but when I try to turn it louder it turns the volume all the way, and no matter what I do the sound won't come back on. I've taken the battery out. Basically tried everything I could think of. HELP!!!

My suspect is the cable. I think testing it on a friends cable or if you go in an electric shack, there you should check out the symptomes. In the case it works you should buy a new cable or check in the guarant. If i doesn't work in my guess only the guaranty will work because I guess this isn't due to external damage.
The battery is your problem and needs a replacement, as denigration of the sound quality is frequently a symptom when an amplifier is not sufficieently powered.
Replace your battery, it will no longer take a charge from the usb.
if the sound doesnt work on your computer it's probably the video. try putting other videos on that do work on your computer becuase then you can figure out if its the videos causing the orlbem or your mp3. heres a link to the sansa forums just in case http://forums.sandisk.com/sansa/board?board.id=e200
These are the most common methods for recovering Sandisk's Sansa Mp3 Players. I have been almost universally successful in recovering Sansa players using one or a combination of these methods. These methods do not work if you are having synchronization or music format issues - they are for recovering a player that will not power up, freezes, flashes, is not recognized by the computer, and a host of other issues.
Reset the Sansa Player first.On most models, restart is done by holding the power button in for 15 seconds or longer.Check your specific manual to be sure. The manuals are available from the Sansa website if they have been misplaced. Download the Sansa Recovery Tool from the Sansa website. Format - Erases Everything: Connect your Sansa player to the computer and open Windows Media Player. Click on the Sync tab. Pull down the drop down menu underneath the Sync tab by moving your cursor over the Sync tab and left clicking on the little black arrow underneath the Sync tab. Highlight "Sansa 1GB" (wording may vary slightly), and then select "Format." - this should erase everything. Firmware Upgrade- Erases Everything: Get the latest firmware upgrade from Sansa - it updates the firmware and erases every song in the player all at once. Note: this method doesn't work if already have the latest firmware. Go to this website and click "Firmware Updater" to find out: http://www.sandisk.com/DriverDownload/driverList.asp If these fail, then: Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, turn it off, hold in the volume + button, and reconnect the player to the computer while holding the volume + button in. Keep holding the volume + button for an additional 5-50 seconds. Windows should eventually go into recovery mode and revive the player- it will pop up a window that says Found New Hardware Wizard. If you get the problem where MTP Device keeps popping up continuously, uninstall the “MTP Device” by going to Start à Control Panel àSystem à Hardware à Device Manager (you computer may vary slightly, depending on Windows Version). You may have to restart your computer after each of these methods to get them to work properly. Disconnect your Sansa player BEFORE shutting down your computer. -Tha Mp3 Doctor
I suggest try updating the firmware of the player. Have you tried listening to the FM station to see if it is only the songs that are being affecter? Also try to use another headphone.
