You did see the big red warning at the top of
the current build page
, right? Current builds are broken for the time.
Turn off your Sansa, hold down |<<, and turn it on again and connect it to your PC. Then download and extract
this daily build
(made from a slightly older revision) to your Sansa. This build should work properly.

Press and hold the Power button until it powers off (up to 30 seconds).
If this still doesn't work, then open the back of the Sansa and remove the battery, then reinsert it.

No, I mean holding the |<< key and then turning your Sansa on. This lets the Sansa boot into the original firmware.

Back to sansa software and is working thank you for helping me. What went wrong with installing rockbox like to really try it? Going to try your suggestion above about installing rockbox daily builds once again thank you.
