Hiya, same problem with my brand new 1gig Sumvision MP3 player. NO MUSIC after playing a few songs, tried to format it using the menu on it, then formatted it using the PC still no luck. Manual was in very poor english - it mentioned using the Low Level format on the CD that came with it. Tried that and no luck as the low level utility does not even recognise the MP3 player let alone format it. Finally in desperation tried to visit the manufacturer's website at: www.sumvision.com.cn and it is not even up and running!
So it looks like this item is faulty and I will now have to post it back, go through the usual hassles of returns and wait a few weeks for a refund.
