Sandisk Sansa E250 crashes Windows Media Player

**dm01** · 01-31-2009, 10:59 PM

Whenever I have my Sandisk Sansa E250 connected to my computer with Windows Media Player open, WMP decides it's a good idea to crash. This happens if I open WMP after connecting the device as well.

I had this problem earlier, the culprit that time was found to be Registry garbage. I ran my entire arsenal of Registry tools, and nothing relating to this issue was found.

I have run all of my Registry tools, and nothing was found. I also force-formatted my device, but that didn't help either.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
More importantly, does anyone know how to fix this?

All right, just to make matters worse, Windows Media Player refuses to work after a re-installation. I really don't want to go through the whole process of re-formatting my hard drive again.
