Rockbox not loading on startup (Clip+)
« on: May 31, 2012, 08:32:17 AM »
Hey I have recently installed rock box via utility and manual methods, however after I open my Clip+ rockbox does not load on start up which seems like nothing has actually happened,  also the original firmware loads instead.

I'm not sure what the problem is as I've installed rock box on another clip+ and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for any help.

Ah sorry ;D Just realised it was installing on SD card not the actual internal memory :x

Same problem with my new clip+ too.

It installs successfully but nothing happens, I unplugged it, switched it off and back on and nothing happens, boots into its stock firmware. I removed the card and reinstalled and still no RockBox.

Theres no Rockbox dir in my Sansa.... nothing but the Utility shows that RockBox is installed.

Can someone tell what could be the problem?
 The only thing left to try is manual install... but am too lazy to try :p

Make sure that you're installing it to the correct drive letter.

Installed without the SD card. No room for drive letter mistake

I would check anyway. Your computer likely has at least one hard drive.

Try installing again. Afterwards go do "Help / Troubleshooting / System Trace". Save the trace and post it.

Just got it running :)

Thank you all!

The utility was autodetecting clip+ but with the wrong drive letter. I manually selected the correct driveletter and it worked.

Thanks again for your support :)
