Will it come on without the battery inserted?

[Brendan]

yes, the same BS happens

[jcrab66]

if you have tried all the usual stuff you might want to contact creative tech support and make sure you get a trouble call number before the 30 days is up......

[F.O.Bean]

or try to 'reload your OS'

[Brendan]
