Can't extract files to iriver

[Konig Drache]

Ok, I downloaded what I needed for my iriver 20 gb player.
Then I went to extract all, then browse but it wasn't on there!
It just had my computer, with all the files and stuff, the cd drive, and that's it.

So...is there something special I have to do to make it show up?

I've read your post about 5 times and I have absolutely no idea what you are asking.  Could you please explain in more detail?  

Some of the information that would help us help you:

What exactly did you download?
What program did you use to extract the contents of the download?
Where did you extract the contents to?

Not sure what you're exactly talking about or what player, but could it be that you don't have "show files" in the player's quick screen set to "all"?

Or are you saying that your player isn't showing up on your computer, when you connect the player to the computer?  If that's the case, try restarting your computer and then connect your player to the computer again--sometimes, there are these "hiccups."

I'm not sure if I understood this strange question right, but my assumtion is he searches for the root folder of his player ... please read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_directory

I downloaded the rockbox thing, the zip file, what else?

And, like your manual says, I right click it, extract all...then you browse where you want to extract the files.
Your supposed to extract them to your media player(h10) but it doesn't appear when I browse.
Is that better?

I even went My computer/Iriver 20GC or whatever it was, and it says it doesn't exist.
I have it plugged in and everything, it appears on My computer, but when I browse to extract all the files to it, it doesn't show up on My computer then.

You will need to use the UMS trick as described here in the maunal. http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-h10/rockbox-buildch2.html#x4-110002.2.3
As you can see that is in the section "Installing the Bootloader" which is one of the steps that you need to go throug to get rockbox to work, please read the entire installing chapter in the manual.

Well, I did read it, and it said that MTP should already be on their.
But I'll try that later, thanx.

It clearly says

The H10 20GB is only available as a MTP device, but can be forced into UMS mode using the UMS trick.

We have a number different downloads, including the fonts package, various themes, and the firmware itself.  These different downloads have different folder structures and will extract to different places on your player.  So my question was a relevant one.

Konig : I'll repeat the above advice.  Please read all of the steps in the installation guide!  From your other post, it sounds to me like you have not installed the bootloader, which is the very next step!

I have read it.
I downloaded the file I need for it, need proof?



Isn't that how it's supposed to look?
Tell me if I'm wrong.

You haven't followed all of the instructions.  From the link that stripwax posted:

4. Copy the H10_20GC.mi4 file you downloaded to the System directory on your player.

Can you not see the picture?

It's in it!!!

Konig - for avoidance of confusion, the "System" directory is the directory called "System".  In your example I imagine this would be E:\System   but you showed us the contents of E:\
