Windows Media pop up!

[SoManyProblems]

Hi everyone,

I'm a new user with (I think) a new question.

Every time I get a reminder on my X51V or every time I turn on the device, the Media player opens right away with a message saying "A storage card was inserted. Do you want to search it for audio and video files?"

Just so you all know, I inserted a new storage card the moment I purchased the thing and have never removed it. Also if I press yes to search.... hoping the message will go away the next time around... it still comes up... If I press No, same thing. :rolling:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Does it happen after a soft reset ? Maybe you have Media Player Running in the background and not completely closed ?

Actually, I have been trying to figure out what a "soft reset" is? Does it mean just removing the battery and placing it back again after a few sec?

If that's what a soft reset is... then yes... it still comes on after that. I don't think I have any media open... as I have never played anything in media since I bought it (about a month ago).

What else do you think it may be?

Any Ideas anyone?

I just received my new x51v last week and after about two days it starting doing the same thing... Then after a few more days it stopped coming up Wierd, huh?

BTW, you perform a "soft reset" by inserting the tip of the stylus in the tiny hole in the back of your x51v and holding it there for about 1 or 2 seconds.

A "hard reset" is done by inserting the tip of the stylus (just like a soft reset) while simultaneously pressing and holding in the power button on the front of the unit.

i get this too while WM is open. Using the "switch bar" program that is in settings, you can see any programs that are running in the back ground. after i use this to close WM, the issue stoped for me, until i open up windows media again that is. A soft reset would also close WM, but the switch bar is much quicker.

simply clicking the X in the corner does not close the application, it just moves it out of view so its running in the background.

Same problem. I have a 2gb sandisk SD card, and a 512mb sandisk ultra2 CF card. Any time the 51 goes to sleep with MP running in memory, when I wake it back up, it gives me the "A storage card was inserted" message. If I remove the CompactFlash card (but leave in the SD card), it doesn't do it. I wonder if there is a registry tweak somewhere that tells media player not to scan "new" cards?

Also, you don't have to soft reset it to clear MP from memory. just tap Start>Settings>System (tab at bottom)>Memory>Running programs> select MP and hit stop. A few more steps, but less disruptive to the rest of the system.
