I opened the clip for the first time and the battery was too low to turn on. I charged it for an hour and was able to copy some mp3’s to it via Windows explorer. It worked fine for an hour or so and now it won’t power up at all.
Right now, there is no “SanDisk” or anything else displayed on startup - just a black display. I have had it on a USB charger for an hour or so and it is hot to the touch.
I tried to hold the on button for 15 seconds as well as hold the on and center button while connecting. I get no response whatsoever.
The other one I bought on the same order is fine, so I think my USB ports, cables, and procedures are fine.
I’ve tried it on two different XP SP2+ machines with the same result.
Yes, too hot to hold. I used three different USB cables and two different XP machines. The Clip got hot with all combinations. I think it’s going back to Best Buy…
