i dunno how to explain it, but there might be a prob with his rom chip (inside the player) i have a 256Mb jump drive but after i fill it by half, i get an error saying "Data error - cyclic redundancy check". Unfortunately there nothing to do about it, well not for jump drives anyways

most of the little mp3 players with 1 GB have a 500 MB per folder limit, if it says it's full make another folder on the stick and put the rest of the mp3's in

Yep erza is totally right here. This is what you have to do
1) Open the mp3 screen up on your computer
2) click create folder.
3) put songs into the new folder which has been created.
this will work. i had this trouble and this makes it work.
