art,  have you updated the bootloader recently?

He'd said he thought is was a third generation when I made my post. I have to wonder though, which firmware he installed if he thought it was third generation at the time.

shoe:
I have a 4th gen ipod too (40gb), and I have been getting the "undefined instruction" error too the last few days (weeks?) with the current builds.

I put on the latest boot loader to be sure I'm not out of date there, I'll see if it happens again this afternoon.  The only way I know how to get the bootloader is from the download link in the manual.  How can I tell the version number/when it was last updated?

I downloaded the one (picture link) that was mine while I was at home.  When I answered your question I was not at home and should have checked the link and answered your question correctly.  Very bad of me to cause this confusion.  I do apologize.

HP produced this thing but it is not like Apple makes these things themselves in Cuppertino.  They all use the same suppliers.  I was an Apple developer in the '80s in another lifetime before I worked for AOL.  Weird times in those days. I'm a retired hobbiest now.  TMI.  I know.

Yesterday, but it did the exact same thing.  I noticed it has ab-ended when it is playing a long song.  It stops about (not exactly sure) 8 minutes into a song over 12 minutes long.  Not the same songs.

I formatted the disk with some forensic software and I will do a fresh install this weekend and load a dozen short songs and give it a try.  If it seems to work.  I'll go for some Pink Floyd and Yanni long cuts and see how that works.

Just trying some S.W.A.G. -ing here to satisfy my curiosity im my old age.
thanks for the response.
Cheers.
