I think you need to fully dry it out before you attempt to use it. If the lake was very dirty, it *might* be better to rinse with clean water, but I'm not sure.

If you can partially dismantle it first, that will probably help it to dry.

http://www.labnol.org/gadgets/ipod/drop-mobile-phone-ipod-water-fix-iphone/2707/ suggests putting it in a bowl of rice, which will tend to absorb moisture.

Good luck

MP3 Player reads reformat error Fat16. How do I reformat it?

Plug the mp3 player into the computer
Double-click My Computer
Right-click icon of the mp3 player
Select Format
It will give you a choice usually between FAT and FAT32 - FAT is the same as FAT16 in Windows-speak, so select "FAT"

If you have plugged your mp3 player into a Mac, you are out-of-luck.

I washed this tiny mp3 player and i don't know how to open it up to let it dry

There is not anything you can do about the device..The device is completely defective...Its like throwing your computer on a lake and dry it after that..What I can recommend you to do is to contact the manufacturer to see if they will send you another one..
I hope that helps

INCOMPATIBILITY WITH WINDOWS VISTA?

This player works only with Windows XP/SP1 or below. Here is an exact quote from the company:
If you have WindowsXP SP2, we recommend that you go back to Windows XP SP1 before Microsoft solves the problem.

Break down

Reset the player, then run the Sansa Recovery Tool on the Sansa website. I had a Sansa Clip that was giving me all kinds of hell. It even gave me the MTP device pop-up indefinitely. I simply restarted my computer after restarting the player, and then recovering the player, and the player works fine again.
