Help with my F40

(1/1)

pandapandapie:
This is my first time using rockbox, I was angry at the original setup on the player and the Amazon product forums recommended rockbox so here I am. I read all the way through the 'Getting Started' and 'Installation' portions of the manual and I did what it said (or at least I think so). I used Winrar to unzip the files on the current build page directly into my drive F: (which is my F40) then unplugged the player, turned it off, and turned it back on. At this point the directions say that there should be a rockbox splash page but there wasn't, it still looks exactly the same as it did before in every respect. What did I do wrong and how can I actually install Rockbox?

Phalangees:
Turn off the gigabeat, flip off the battery switch on the bottom, switch it back on, then proceed to turn on your gigabeat.

pandapandapie:
All that did was reset my clock and background. I still didn't see a rockbox splash page.

talos321:
Did you use the bootloader too?

It is located here http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GigabeatFXPort
Under Latest Bootloader
Be sure to follow those installation instructions exactly.

pandapandapie:
That did it. Thanks!
