Here is my desperation trick when my oldest Clip Sport will not turn on (even with > 75% charge).
Connect the player to a 1.0 amp charger (not computer USB).
Press and hold down on the start button until the display screen turns gray (then let go).
Press and hold on the start button until the screen turns off (then let go).
Hopefully the player will display the SanDisk start-up logo. :smiley: Then maybe then leave the player on charger for 2-3 hours.
If “no joy”, then maybe the player needs some expert brain surgery?
