The procedure depends on what version you have.

Below there is the procedure for 20 GB , on other models procedure is the same, but you must find the right download for your model.

For 20 GB :

TO RESTORE "SYSTEM FILES MISSING" LOCKED PLAYER

--- This applies ONLY to the 20 gig version of the H10! ---

--- This procedure formats your H10 so all data will be erased on the player! ---

1. Power off H10 - 20gig unit.

2. Insert staple or other small object into reset hole to press reset button.

3. Connect player to USB cable.

3. Hold down Select key (labeled "O" - right button on front of player) while also holding down power key until player boots.

4. Unit must display "Emergency Connection."

5. Unit will now appear as a drive under My Computer. Right click on drive, select Format. No need to change anything, just proceed.

6. Download H10_20GB_System.exe. It is a self-extracting archive. Double click on it and unzip to c:\iriver.

Why don't you try to scan your cowon, with your antivirus??? it should work... and so you'll be able to get rid of the troyan.

I started scaning my A2 a while ago (I have kaspersky ) and it worked.

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.

Sorry it wasn't the Elio Jukebox with 20 GB, it was the Elio Jukebox with 4 GB.
And yes it's solved. I copied the files from a second Elio on it. Not the files from the CD!!! You must copy the files from a working unit. It works with mine. If you need the files - I can mail it to you. I am from Germany but after you copied the files you can change the language from German to English on the player menue.

Hi, I had the same problem with my Elio Photo Jukebox 810. I ask a friend - he has the same model. I copied all the files from his to mine and the system was restored. Maybe somebody can send the files to you and I hope it works as good as it works on mine.

you will have to connect elio to your pc open your my computer program and you should see elio conected to your pc as removable storage device H THEN click on device then propeties you should then be able to open diolog with your pc by changing the pathways of your files manualy as i have to because the soft ware provided with the elio will not work on my pc

you can bypass the need for soft ware disc by conecting to your pc click start menu go to my computer open elio jukebox click propeties open pathway to music and apply then you can drag and drop music straight into your elio or right click music file you want to send and jobs done

i have similar problem, i think i know why mine doesn't work. My son connected the usb port to power supply, since then the elio manager does not recognise that the player is connected.... something must have blown in the usb circuitry

I mate I saw a reply to a thread on a forum regarding the Elio Photo Jukebox TPJ-1022. I have the same problem as you could you email the software/firmware on how to recover this item.

Thanks
