Sansa CLIP BH0811BIFK-4GB 2.01.16
Hi!
I may have broken this sansa clip to no recovery.
I’ve checked the forums but haven’t found an answer here. If I missed it please let me know, but I don’t believe that to be the case.
~~
When attempting to turn the device ON the common message of
“Not enough space for Musis DB. Please free 30 mb.” appears.
~~
Now, I tried downloading the 2.01.35, 16.0 MB update, but this message pops up on the computer screen:
“There is not enough space available device perform firmware update. The minimum space required 16.0 MB. Please free some space on your device, and try again.”
What to do now ?
Thanks for the help!

Hey,
Well, now it won’t turn on. 
I tried doing the MSC mode. And did the Check disk options on the Removable Disk (F:), because ‘Sansa’ didn’t show up.
Black screen now. Even when attempting to force it into MSC mode.
Ideas?
This has happened before and it turned on a couple months later. So you may not be hearing from me for a while.
Thanks for the help,

Try resetting it by slidiing the power switch up and holding it for 20 secs. Once you hold it up for the extended time, release and then see if it will start up normally. If that doesn’t work, try it up to 30 secs.
Then I would format it as suggested in the Knowledge Base article linked to if the ChkDsk procedure doesn’t work.
Cool, the reset trick worked.
A bit more detail:
-No Sansa in the address bar, only Removable Disk ( F: )
-Can’t delete files on PC
“Then I would format it as suggested in the Knowledge Base article linked to if the ChkDsk procedure doesn’t work.”
(Links please) Did a google and forum search. Knowledge Base??
The link in the second post. You’ll notice the address starts with “kb”, which is short for Knowledge Base.
Hey guys…!
I’m back with great news… And that is to say the last posts advice worked!!!
Note: When I Formated it Under Storage , Disk Management on the left pane, ( F: ) showed up rather than ‘Sansa.’
“Keep us advised”
Thanks, It’s been a pleasure working with ya’ll. I’m really grateful to see such a helpful community online. You don’t know how ecstatic I was to see that I would have an mp3 player again. I’m gonna get emotional on you all…
My health hasn’t been so good for the past few years and this Sansa was one of my only buddies. It’s great to know that I’ll have her back after many months of not hearing from her. :) I missed all the informative audiobooks, podcasts, and of course music I used to benefit from. Needless to say I’m stoked she’s back in my life and that we’re back together again. 
Thanks again to you all for all your suggestions!
P.S. Is there any way I can get my computer to show Sansa in the address bar (plugged in)? Maybe it’s time for an update. Again, I’ll keep you updated.
