Its booting rockbox by default because thats how we designed the bootloader. You have to push a button to get the Sandisk firmware.

Are you asking about the Sandisk firmware or Rockbox? Also, you can always reboot the player by holding power for 30 seconds. No need to pull the battery.

I simply want my E 280 to work. I can't help but think that RB is the reason it is not able to be recognized. But I can't get if off without it being recognized and it's jacked as it is. Is there a way to dump what's on there?

Are you trying rockbox or the Sandisk firmware when "It" doesn't work?
Be specific. Its impossible for anyone to help you if you don't explain the problem.
deucesup22:
Both. It definitely doesn't work in rockbox as far as recognition and occasionally will recognize the player when I hook in after booting in sansa mode. But if I try to access the drive it hangs the entire computer. In Sansa mode, unhooked, it doesn't register any files, so can't play. In RB mode, unhooked it sees a small portion of what's on there.
Please, I can't believe that RB could permanently brick my player. There has to be something. Thx.

With the e200, one thing worth looking at is the flash chip which sometimes gets loose.
Open the battery cover (four screws IIRC), and look for a black square (a bit less than a centimetre across I believe). Push that down firmly.
No guarantees that this is actually your problem, but it does happen fairly regularly.
