2 GB Fuze FAT Is Corrupted, USB Device Not Recognized

I just saw something interesting with my device that I hadn’t seen before. I’m going through the routine of modifying tags and testing tracks to see which ones are good and which ones may be causing a problem. I powered up the device with the ones that are currently on it and everything looked good, so I plugged it in to try another batch of albums. The autoplay of listing the Explorer for the files popped and I noticed that the directory names were all wacky, even though I had had no problem with the current batch of songs. This concerned me so I immediately disconnected the device and wouldn’t you know it: I got the ‘not enough space’ message. I just thought that was a little weird, that it seemed able to read the db fine on power up but someone lost it once I plugged it in. Wacky piece of equipment.
