What extension do the files have and how were they created?

What revision of Rockbox are you using?

Try deleting your .rockbox folder and unzipping a current build to see if file corruption due to the first unzipping is the problem.

Please update to a current build and try again.  Delete the .rockbox folder from the root of your iPod, then extract the new one, then give us an exact directory listing of the iPod.

i forgot to mention i more thing
i upgraded my ipod original firmware to 1.3 version using itunes 7.6

i guess this has nothing to do with the error?

It might have something to do with it.  Though, I would think if this was a real causal relationship that we would be seeing a rash of complaints about this.  Can you also reset your settings to default?  

Did this start happening right after an iPod firmware update?
