Press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to "reset" the device. Then try to re-start the device. Once its started, connect it to the PC and delete the movie. The video is either corrupt or you device has too much data on it. Best of Luck.

Check for updates or just update adoe flash player
Adobe Flash Player allows users to view videos made with Flash, a common online video format that can be viewed by both Mac and PC users.

Because technology is consistently emerging, Adobe frequently updates its Flash player. Downloading an update is free, and may be required in order to watch videos online.

You will need at least 128 MB of RAM available on your computer to update Flash player, and Internet Explorer version 6.0 or later for Windows XP, version 7.0 or later for Windows Vista and Internet Explorer 8.0 or later for Windows 7.

Open Internet Explorer and navigate to Adobe's Flash player download site.
Click the download link and follow the instructions on your screen.

Click "Allow" or "Install" if your security system asks if you want to download the file.
Avoid running other programs while the download is going on.

Flash player tests itself by showing you a brief video when the download is complete.
If you do not see this video, the player has not been successfully installed and you must try the download again.

Large file sent on Outlook Express immobilized my system

Hi

you should never even attempt to send such huge files, first of all that will take hours to send, and will most likely be rejected by the service, and as far as I know there is no email service that would allow to send such huge files, gmail, with the bigest storage I know, 7GB, has a 20MB limit on file sending.

You can't email that large file, burn it to a cd and mail it over.

Anything else?

My computer can't recognize it as removable device,

Your post:
in case you have not been able to solve your problem as yet, try the following: DO NOT CONNECT THE PLAYER TO THE COMPUTER as you have a format device on your player: firstly get rid of all your files you might need as you might have used your player as a stick secondly make sure that you still have got your OMGAUDIO file on it (if not, post that you need it, possibly I could help you with this) THEN
push the small button long, go to "menu" (the small briefcase)
push the large button and go to "advanced" by pushing the "forward button" on the side
push the large button again
a spanner will appear and "sound"
push the forward button again until you get"Initialize"
large button will say "reset", then reset but even better to solve your problem:
push forward again until you get to "format", forward to "ok"
large button and your player will be completely new formatted

get some converted music files on your player and it will work!!
I had the same problem, and finally I managed to solve it.
To be honest, I quite like my player!

good luck

Undeletable video file

Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, 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.
-----
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/Retail/DriverDownloads.aspx

1.5 mb used with no songs or videos in player

Some data is reserved for Sansa's own files and/or you might have recordings/leftovers in other folders. Best would be to connect as a USB drive and delete all visible content from folders (but not the actual folders). Number of songs supported depends on the format and quality of the file.

Videos have dissapeared, but memory still gone?

I had the same problem. I updated the firmware. I then set the unit to the MSC USB type. I then went to "My Computer" and right-clicked the drive and reformat in a fat 32. I now have all available memory back.
