Mp3 player - THOMSON Lyra 2601 - Firmware problem

[MC_Kejml]

Hey there,

 

 

 

recently, I was having problems with the mp3 playr mentioned in the title. I had trouble with playing songs: After playing any song, the whole player restarted. So I decided to download some firmware. Because it's an old model I have over 2 years, I found searching for firmware quite dificult. When I finally found it, I decided to execute included update application "Stupdaterapp[Caution: Executable File]". I connected the player through USB cable and pressed update. I heard the windows sound of connecting and disconnecting, which was pretty weird ( there was a DO NOT DISCONNECT warning). The strange thing was that in other times i easily updated it in 5 mins, but this time, it simply hanged up. After an alf hour, nothing changed. So I turned of off and resetted my pc.

 

 

 

Now I can't even turn the player on, and windows keeps installing this weird "PLAYER RECOVERY DEVICE CLASS" whenever I plug in the mp3 by USB cable. When it's installed and I exe cute the updater, the device keeps randomly connecting and discpnnecting and the program hangs, still saying " INITIALIZING "

 

 

 

Any advice?

 

 

 

Thanks,

This problem is way to focused(for lack of a better term) for a general tech support [subforum]. If you can't find the answer on google then i think your only chance is to ask it on a dedicated tech support forum. I doubt you'll find an answer here.
