Hi All…
Finally figured out whyy my player , wouldn 't play anything , let alone be recognized by my comp…Looked thru as many forum’s within an 8 hr period, all had different way’s to fix problem, and yet nothing would work to my satisfaction…So what i did, was try to piece anything that might have worked on other player’s and came up with my own solution…I hope it works out for anyone trying to figure out their e260…Well, here it goes… 1 - went to setting in e260 player to format drive…2 - connected sansa e260 player to a Vista O.S. to get any kind of drivers for this player, because i didn 't recieve an installation cd and my own XP comp couldn 't give it one for some reason…3 - downloaded “sansa updater” and “sansa connect device recovery” from this site http://www.sandisk.com/Retail/DriverDownloads.aspx … and then installed both on my own computer, which is an XP operating system…oh yea, plz , just leave them be, don 't open them up…soon they will, without your help, at least not much… 3 - then i downloaded “WMP11” from microsoft web site…and installed it, nothing more…Now here’s the good part, i opened windows media player 11, and plugged in my e260 to comp, and thats when i smiled…after that, just follow directions and click away…The darn thing is alive…:))… I’am listening to my new sansa e260 with over 3gb’s of music…i hope this helps out…TC ALL…mal :))
P.S…Plz don 't use the O.S. FORMAT IN COMP, use the sansa e260 setting to format drive, if you already have music and other data in e260, then by all means , skip this part about the formatting… I hope it works out for you…TC…mal
