YO TENIA UN PMP ME PASO LO MISMO. Y TEMO DECIRLES QUE MURIO, TUVE QUE CAMBIARLO, LO QUE ME DIJERON FUE QUE SE DAñO LA MEMORIA Y LA BATERIA, ASI QUE PAILA. TAL VEZ EL TUYO NO SUFRA LO MISMO

Here is the fix: Boot Failure

Sometimes just downloading and following the procedure in Boot Failure does not work, because the system files cannot be overwritten, in this case follow the additional instructions here to delete manually the system files.

When you connect the PMP to the computer does it say your new device is ready for use or something else like 'the device has malfunctioned'?

I have the same issue that frequently the computer won't see the PMP. Keep trying it sometimes works. If not then its likely that the harddisk is dead or dying.

its just the USb isn't enough space for the usb port to fit in, thats all

You might need to change your format from NTS something to FAT32. Hook up your iriver to the comp. and right click the iriver drive..scroll down to format and click the arrow to chang it. My brother told me how but i still haven't tried it yet b/c he said that i needed a older comp. to do it. but i believe it'll work once i have the option to choose FAT32.

when i turn on my Iriver PMP-140 it comes up with a message reading
Boot Failure
System file has an error.
To solve the problem, connect the device to computor.
