H10 20gb cant find files

this one has had a few on the irc stumped, but here goes

Ive had my h10 for 3 years (this is my second one) and ive also replaced the battery for a larger 1700mAh. i dropped it in the grass one day, picked it up and kept listening to music. i press pause and talk to someone, as normal after so many minuets the Dap turns off. when i turn it back on, i get the iriver splash screen, then after a minuet or 2 it says,

rockbox boot loader
version: r12862:12866-0732(the rest gets cut off)
iriver h10 20GB
HTC426020G7CE10
partition 0:0x0c 19077 mb
cannot load rockbox.h10
file not found
cannot load rockbox.mi4
file not found

after it says this the player sounds like it does a hard shutdown. i have tried dual booting into the OF, with no luck, the computer will connect to it, but no files show up, and i cannot run any hard drive checks on the player.

it says storage size is 0kb and space used is 0kb. i am assuming that the harddrive connection has gone bad. i took it apart cleaned it out and moved the ribbon to see if i get any response, i got a flash of my folders on the computer for about a second, but i couldn't duplicate that.

this is very wierd, if there is a bad harddrive connection, why does the bootloader appear? ive turned on the player without a hdd and i got the normal systemfiles missing. i already bought a new dap, but it would be nice to get my old h10 going again and sell it.

(also when plugging into the computer a window saying autoplay shows up, and it appears to be searching for the .rockbox folder)

any ideas? thanks for any help

try running chkdsk /f on the player -- sounds like the disc has data errors. There's no guarantee a successful "repair" with chkdsk will be permanent though -- it's quite possible that the hard disc is dying after the drop.

delorean90:
it says: the type of file system is NTFS
cannot lock current drive.

chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. would you like to schedual this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts <Y/N>

Rockbox doesn't work with NTFS -- the player needs to be formatted as FAT32. I think the FAQ has more details on that issue.

Interesting that the partition type is 0x0c (W95 FAT32 (LBA)) ...

delorean90:
the computer says the harddrive is formatted in fat32, maybe i checked the wrong harddrive? how do i run a chkdsk? i have tried going through properties and going through error checking but the app closes itself out before it even begins
