So about a month ago I was messing around with my gigabeat and since then it's been nothing more than an expensive paperweight. I think I deleted the firmware. Whatever I did, it makes it not play. The music files are on there because I can access them and play them via windows explorer, but when I try to play the device itself I get "file not found" for everything.
So, then I hear about rockbox. Excellent! So excited. Did the manual install...nada. Did the auto install...nada. So, apparently whatever I did initially is still messing up my player. Any suggestion on how to fix this? I have an F-series (I think an F-40). I do not have my original software (or if I do it's at the bottom of a box in storage) and I've changed laptops since I first got the device.
I've been using Media Monkey to sync my player/laptop.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions on how I can get my tunes back. My commute is lonely now!
