Sounds very familiar to my story! I bought a MZ-NH900 about 3 years ago, until 2 weeks ago it has worked perfectly. I think it got knocked around in Frankfurt airport, to be honest I'm not too sure what happened to it! Over the last 2 weeks it has stopped playing random folders on any Hi-MD disc I try (it makes a loud spinning noise, as if it is searching for the folder/files), other times it plays a song, cuts out (but keeps playing) and comes back after 20 seconds or so. When it cuts out, I found that if I I press and hold the Rewind button to backtrack through a song, it takes about 10 seconds before it responds, and plays the "missing piece of music" perfectly. Also, sonic stage sometimes connects to the player, sometimes says that another programme is accessing the player (when nothing is), the times sonicstage reads the discs contents, I can't delete or add files/folders without an access error message coming up, and if I try deleting files/folders through the player itself, a busy message pops up, the player makes a spinning/searching sound and stays like that for a looooong time (not too sure how long as I get bored waiting). I'm frustrated with this as I think the player is fantastic when it works, I'm a music addict, and I need this thing to work properly again! Any suggestions on what I can do, please?
