Describe what you did and maybe someone can spot what went wrong.

From what you've said I don't think you ever actually installed rockbox. We have install directions here if you want to try:

hmmm... when i turn on the zip it shows a rockbox logo then says firmware not found.... connect usb. you have to hold power button for like 20 seconds then... when it powers off... hit power button then volume level down... then it will go to sansu firmware. you can use the zip like you never downloaded rockbox. but the second it powers off. it will do the same thing again. rockbox logo... please connect usb. weird :(

You have the bootloader installed, but not rockbox. You can either follow the uninstall directions I posted above, or the install directions I posted above, depending on what your goal is.

Post Merge: January 30, 2012, 04:08:19 PMok... i downloaded the rockbox for zip firmware again. how do i get it to work on the zip? unzip files, copy and then paste to the zip?

It sounds like you used the uninstall directions to successfully uninstall rockbox. Why the question marks?

I thought I was installing rockbox from the link above. I want rockbox. What do I need to do to get rockbox forward on my clip zip?
