When the power completely drains to the point the player wont even turn on, theres aparently no way to charge this thing being as you need the player to be on in order to charge it.

BADBADBADBADBAD PRODUCT, If anyone sees this, DONT BUY THIS EXPENSIVE PIECE OF GARBAGE

FL 300 power issues
Apr 2, 2005 2:36AM PST

I had the same problem. I had to disconnect the player from the charger/usb connector and then hold the play/stop button down until it came on 3-5 seconds. I would be open to any ideas on how to load files on to the thing! I am running windows 2000 and have downloaded every available thing on mpio's website to try and get it working. Any suggestions?

still my favorite mp3 player. if it wont power on plug it in for 10mins with power off, disconnect it and it will power on no problem. reconnect to charge normally.
