How changing a device driver on one computer and changing nothing on the Sansa Express itself changes the player and not the host computer is beyond me.
Wow… Thanks, Tmark, for posting this very useful link. However, LoisCatherine makes an important and definitely relevant point. I’ve no idea why you reacted so defensively to her (innocuous to me) post.

Can these instructions work for Vista? The prompts are the same, up to a point, but then I don’t have a choice not to automatically search for the software.
Thanks - those instructions worked, but now I have another problem.
The Sandisk is now showing with not one, but two drive letters - D: and J: The program to update the firmware is now telling me that it can’t find the updatable Sandisk. Do I need to update manually, following the other instructions on this forum?

The first drive letter is the internal memory.
The second drive letter is the Micro SD memory card slot.
Thanks for these instructions. My sansa express came up with a copying error when uploading, with this mode I was just able to drag and drop new music into the drive.
Thanks a lot. I bought a new Sansa Express and out of Excitement I bought a 4GB Micro SD too, but I was not able to use it , but after reading your post I was able to do it.
To all those who are not so technocrats like me; if you want to switch back to MTP mode follow the procedure given in the Pdf of tmarkoski user till Number 5 and then click Next and select “MTP Device”.
For one thing It lists my sansa under “disk Drives” in the device manager( and it lists 2 of them?) and when I get to the box where I’m suposed to be able to select USB Mass Storage device it’s not an option, my only option is “disk Drive”
I can’t get my sansa to format ( it says it’s formating but when I start it it hasn’t erased anything) so I wanted to check it for errors and read another post saying to put it in MSC mode to do so, but I can’t get that to work either. any ideas?
