I knew this would be the best place to get help. My Matsui Mat110mr has been corrupted. I was moving these files out of the songs folder. Windows Explorer crashed which was very unusual. I went on task manager and ended WE. When i ended it this messege came up saying some of my data is lost. I went to my E:\ ( RD ) and it wouldnt load. After a bit this messege came up ' The file or directory is either corrupted or unreadable ' . I was searching on google on how to fix my corrupted or unreadable mp3 player. But i could'nt find out how to. I thought this was the best place. Please help me.
 
Have you tried going to My Computer, and right clicking on your mp3 player's drive listing, and reformatting it?
If the data on them has been missaved/messed up, sometimes completely reformatting it fixes it, as it completely wipes the drive and creates a new file table to replace the fubared one. That'll only help if its not a hardware failure, but if you can reformat it completely, that might sort it :)

When i right click the listing dosnt show. it just comes back to when you dont click anything :(

I need to formatt it through cmd or control panel.. Problem is i don't know how.

If it can be done with the control panel, you want control panel --> administrative tools ---> computer management ---> storage ---> disk management

Then try and see if you can do anything with your MP3 player's listing there.


At command prompt (start menu ---> run---> type 'cmd') you could try:

chkdsk E: (your mp3 drives location) /f
then when thats done

Format E:

Again, hope that helps :)

Just what I was about to suggest - using the command prompt is still usefull. :D I would probably use the command :-

Format <your mp3 drive letter here>: /U /V

(e.g. Format E: /U /V )

Thats an unconditional format (doesn't try saving any unformat information etc) and with Verify. That should make sure its all clear and tests out ok. Done this with a few SD ram cards in the past.

NB: Obviously this will clear any files currently on your mp3 player, so should only be done it you want to clean up the unit rather than recover its contents.
 
YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST !

1st i went to the cmd and did what you said .and this thing came up saying that my volume was incorrect, i restarted. MY comp was crashed then ( My explorer was not on ) so i had to go to task manager and do cmd then. My Explorer crashed when i put it on. I went and did what you said on cmd again after i restarted. It said

" The type of file system is FAT32.
Verifying 948M "

It wasnt formatted properly, but i could atleast go in to my mp3 player storage, then i manually formatted it.

This is the place i will allways go for problems. Thanks a whole lot guys.
