Constantly "Writing"

cool_walking_:
Install unlocker, then right-click on the drive letter for the sansa, and select "unlocker".  That'll tell you what files are open.  This might give some insight?

brownbox:
unlocker told me this

No locking handle found.
However Unlocker can deal with this object....

Guess its just a proper problem with vista ay?

snoip:
No, I run XP Pro as well as Ubuntu, and the same thing happens to me on a regular basis.
With all the warning about unplugging while "Writing" is displayed on the screen, the fear of getting bricked, etc... I am too scared to just unplug it and will usually just wait till I reboot the computer to remove it.
But definitely not just a Vista problem.

MarcGuay:
This is a problem with the Sandisk firmware and/or the operating system involved and its software.  If you report these problems to the right parties maybe you'll find solutions.

(V)3@7Y:
im running Xp and also having the same problem.
windows refuses to unmount it, so basically i just end up having to unplug it during the "Writing" screen. no problems so far, so i guess it isnt reAlly a big issue.
