18 .0Formatting the Player
18.1 Understanding File systems
Your player is like a small hard drive of data, and like any such storage
device, it has a file system. If you wish to reformat the player's file system,
you may use any standard formatting tools as long as it is formatted with
FAT32 file system.
18.2 Reformatting Your Player in Windows
Follow these steps to reformat your player:
1. Connect the player to your computer
via the USB cable.
2. Double-click My Computer. Find the
icon representing the player, which will
probably appear as Removable Disk.
3. Right-click the player's icon and select
Format.
4. Make certain the file system is
FAT32; otherwise the player will not
work!
5. Click Start.
6. When the Warning message appears,
click OK. Once started DO NOT
remove the USB cable as this may
damage the player!
7. Once the formatting is complete, you may access the drive through
My Computer.
