Rockbox7.zip (47785caM) works

I'm just chiming in here to make sure you're aware that you can always boot the original firmware to facilitate a USB connection should you need to.
One of the main issues here regarding USB is that virtually no active developers use Windows or Mac, and generally speaking linux based distributions are a lot more permissive in regards to USB (for better or worse). With Windows, there's so many variables that can throw spanners in the works its not even funny. It makes it very hard to debug.
Its usually never particularly clear whether you're chasing a bug with the embedded system (Rockbox) or the host environment (Windows).

Saint, that's a given (booting into OF, but you realize that IF you do that to get the PC to recognize the Sansa, when you disconnect, you (meaning me) have to wait some 10 minutes for the OF Sansa to "refresh" - and that is one of the big reasons I switched to Rockbox, so as not to have to deal with the refresh issue.
I can guarantee you the bug is within the Rockbox code, because SOME of the Rockbox builds (including the 3.13 stable and others) DO boot quite nicely via USB on my Windows 7 machine.
