Is your player still able to play music normally?  The only time I've seen 
something similar to this with other players they've required to be reset 
either by cleaning the database on the player or formatting the player's hard 
drive.

  Hello

  I'm guessing half of you don't have the player I do, but I'll tell you 
anyway. PNY vibe. Here is my problem:

  When I connect the player to my computer, I hear the ding dong sound that 
confirms it has been recognized. Usually, a pop-up window appears asking me 
what I'd like to do. Before I tell you anything else I should tell you that 
this specific player acts as a removable disk in windows. I don't get this 
message; and when looking in windows explorer, I don't see the removable disk. 
I tried using the add hardware wizard but that didn't help iether. I saw "2 gb 
vibe," in the list of hardware, but I just can't access its contents. I haven't 
changed anything, it just started happening a few days ago. I'm using windows 
xp and JFW 7.0. My USB ports are all fine, since I tested them with my epson 
printer and kanin scanner. Before I finish, I might as well add that when 
booting up windows, if the player is connected, windows won't boot until I've 
disconnected the player. But this happened from the beginning and that's not a 
problem. Also, I've tried multiple ports with no success.

  Hopefully somebody can help me.

  thanks,
  Tyler
