Please edit your title to be descriptive.  

Anyway, it sounds like you left the bootloader in place.  Did you follow the instructions in the manual, being careful to avoid skipping steps?

You should be able to connect in USB recovery mode (push hold button to on"orange", then hold down record button and  push power, hold record button until device shows usb recovery mode, then connect cable) then you should be able to drag and drop the latest firmware into the drive letter of the device, disconnect, remove hold button, device will then restart twice I believe and should then boot original firmware. Hope your subscription stuff will still work afterwards if you were gonna subscribe to Rhapsody To Go.               http://www.sandisk.com/driverdownload/download.asp?driverId=8

No problem, hope that works for ya, it should. Apparently the link I sent for the firmware , you have to log in to download now. Somewhere on this site it exists as well.
