Sansa e280 won't go out of USB mode

(1/3) > >>

cBc:
My Rockboxed e-280 has been faultless since forever, but I'm suddenly having this problem.
I connected it to my desktop (Win XP Pro) & transferred some files to it. I have an 8GB card in addition to the onboard 8GB. When I tried to access the onboard memory, it shows the Music folder, but nothing inside of it. I  unmounted the player inside Windows and unplugged it from the connection, but the USB gui screen remained & I have to pull off the cover & remove the battery to get it to stop. I re-inserted it again, but same result. The battery shows as fully charged in Rockbox, but when I had it boot up under the OF, it showed the charging icon running rather quickly.
I used it last night w/ RB & it playsfine, but am hoping to solve this.

Thanks in advance

It is probably worth checking for disk errors with chkdsk - from what I remember the syntax is "chkdsk -f drive:" where drive is e.g. e:

cBc:
Thank you for the response. Can you advise on how to do this?
The Sansa shows up as drive R
So in dos command window under r: I do
chkdsk -f ?


sorry...it's been a while ..lol

update, never mind, found it in the archives. Will try it tonight.
thank you.

AlexP:
no, "chkdsk -f r:" 

(check out what I said in my previous post, it is exactly that :))

cBc:
hm..ok.
This is the method I found in a post back a few years here:

If you are having problems with file corruption, you can try CHKDSK without having to delete all the music/video's/pictures off your player.


Running CHKDSK - connect e200 in MSC mode, view in windows explorer, right click on SANSA E200, Properties, Tools, Error-checking, check Automatically fix file system errors, Start and let it do it’s thing.
