  • MEGA STICK 520 Firmware update?

    Hi, well I´been searching and reading this forum for quite some time and I haven´t found answers to this questions and I though that maybe someone did, so here it is:
    I own a MEGA STICK 520 and I found a firmware update MS5520v0.2.0_FW.zip (2005-8-17) but I want to know exactly what does it changes, so if someone did the update, what does it do? And did you have any problems installing it? because I´ve read too many threads about players dying or allmost.
    Is it the first firmware update? cause aparently for what i´ve read a lot of firmware with problems were solved with new versions.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bherno
    Ps: sorry for my english, i´m from argentina. and please don´t answer me "just do it man!", because it cost me a lot of money and i can´t afford to kill it. I have two good reasons for doing the update, it´s really annoying that the player starts reproducing an album in the middle when it is prefectly organiced (in fact if you go manually to the first track it will play perfectly fine), and that the volume increases exponentialy.

    Update items is as follows:

  • Mega stick firmware problem

    i had the mega stick 511 with the firmware version 2 and i updated it to version 3 and it stop working. now when i plug it into the pc it won't even detect it or recognize it to undo the updated version 3. what can i do so it will detect it, once it detected it as smp3 device but when i tried to undo the updated version it appeared an error window. what can i do?!?!?!

    FINALLY, THE SOLUTION
    I have a brand new Megastick 511 USB 2.0 without FM, and I could get version 3.x firmware update done.
    My PC config is...
    ABit KV8 Pro Motherboard,
    512MB kingston RAM,
    Athlon64 2800+,
    OS Win XP SP2 with every single update released,
    but frankly, I don't believe this problem has anything to do with machine configuration, USB or OS issues. It's merely a question of doing the right thing. Of course, I'm assuming your USB is really 2.0 and you downloaded the right firmware and unzipped it to the MS-5511 folder, as stated in the manual.
    Ok, folks. After having this very same problem for a few days, I finally figured it out. Yeah, I wanted this playlist feature this bad, and it's worth the price.
    Problems were...
    1- Device was not recognized as a USB 2.0 device, no matter the USB motherboard drivers were installed;
    2- As soon version 3.x firmware updates were done, I got the old 'deadbrick' effect - oh, yeah, no lights or sounds out of the brand new player - which could be reversed with the old firmware, the one supplied with the CD.
    What I did to have the playlist feature was...
    1- Took the battery OUT;
    2- Using the cable supplied, I pressed and held the play/pause button and kept it pressed until procedure was completed;
    3- Inserted the cable in a USB;
    4- Windows showed the old 'hey, this device could be faster, blah, blah' message - just ignore it, as I did!
    5- Go to the MSI MS511 MEGA STICK Update program;
    6- This is very important... at this point, it would be nice if the software could recognize the device, but IT DOESN'T! You will get a message saying 'Media state not started' or something like this after quite a while waiting. This mean it won't show your current firmware version! Once again, ignore it!
    7- Well, since the 'start' button was there, I clicked on it, AND I WAS AMAZED TO SEE THE UPDATE BEING DONE! Ok, I didn't wanted to format the device, as it was full of good music, but even unchecking the format option, the software keep saying this had to be done in order to upgrade the firmware - a fair price;
    8- As all the copying and writing and verifying processes were done, I knew procedure was over, as the new 3.x firmware version was showing, and I could finally copy more tunes into my 511-now-with-playlist device! Only at this point I released the play/pause button.
    Now, when I connect the 511 to the PC, Windows continues saying the device could be faster, but the Update software recognizes it immediatly! And for 512MB of stuff, it takes around 12min to transfer - as it did before - just in case you wanted to know.
    Enjoy, my friends!

  • Mega Stick 256MB (USB 1.1)

    I bought the Mega Stick but I don't have the CDRom. Do I need it when I use Windows XP as operating system? My system recognises the Mega Stick when I put it in my USB, but I don't see it on my screen or something. When I copy files from a CD to the player I can't find them and I can't see the player writing.
    Please help

    If u plug in the stick (and switch it on) it will present itself as a driveletter e.g. E: Just copy the MP3 or WMA files to that drive.

  • Mega Stick 128

    Hi!
    Last week i bought   Mega stick128 MP3  and now I have a few problems with the connection to usb of my computer.
    I have Windows XP Professional service Pack 1 with driver USB 2.0 but when I put the stick in the USB and I try to explore my folder all system stop and I to turn off the pen from usb port. I try also with my notebook with Windows2000 and I have not any problem, all is fantastic.
    So I decide to install the driver for windows XP from your internet site, but nothing is change. The firmware of the stick  is the last one 2.5 European.
    Can you help me, I need a special patch or there is a no compatibility between the stick and windows XP professional.
    I don’t think that is a problem of the stick because with windows 2000 I haven’t problem, but I don’t think also that is a problem of USB port of my computer because I use another  flash stick without a problem.
    Last information ,when the stick stop the message on the display in reading!
    Please Help me
    Thank you.

    look, when you make these replies saying "nothing changed" will not help. what did you do, step by step, and what happened when you tried it? so you went to a comp in which the mega stick didn't hang windows. you right click formatted the mega stick "x" drive using fat or fat 16 (i used fat) and not fat 32. did you uncheck the quick format, or did you leave it checked? please explain yourself. how do i know if you understood what i was asking or if i even explained it well enough? either one has to be the case as you are the only one in which this technique has not worked for.  

  • MEGA stick 511 (512mb)

    Hi, my problem is that, i don't know or it just imposible, i can't get to divide my mp3 into differents folders, i create de folder but when navigate through the mp3 there are all mixted up  , is there a way to get them separate in folders?  
    THX

    For MEGA stick 511 (all capacity versions) you can divide your mp3s to as many folders as you want but when you navigate through them from the MEGA Stick menu they will be all together but they are in the order that you put the folders. first the mp3s from the first folder, second the mp3s from the second folder etc.. the problem is that the mp3s are all in a row so if you want to go to the mp3s of the second folder you must one by one go to the first fong of the second folder.
    Sory for my english! i am terrible!!! please anyone who understands what i am writting repost it in real english!

  • Mega Stick 511 USB2 problem

    All,
    The problem has been "sorted" for me. After speaking with the very helpful Alick in MSI support, he pointed me to the right firmware for my MS5511 1GB Megastick:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/firmware/frm/spt_frm_ia_detail.php?UID=607
    It's the one called "MEGA STICK 511 Firmware" not "MEGA STICK 511 USB2.0 without FM Firmware" (what a horrible website!) and it's version 002.001.009.
    Still the annoying 'This device can perform faster' message - but it's connected as USB2.0 full-speed and not USB1.0 slow-speed, meaning you can fill up the 1GB in about 20 minutes, as opposed to several hours.
    I compared Alick's results using HD Tach (http://www.simplisoftware.com/Public/index.php?request=HdTach), and got the following results:
    1. A USB1.1 device will read at around 0.8 MByte/s
    2. My MS5511 device will read at around 0.9 MByte/s (USB2.0 full-speed's theoretical max is around 1.5MByte/s)
    3. A USB2.0 high-speed memory-stick will read at around 9.0 MByte/s (USB2.0 high-speed's theoretical max is around 60 MByte/s
    4. My (slow) hard disk will read at around 30 Mbyte/s
    5. A really good hard disk on a fast PC will read at around 130 MByte/s
    The real problem I have is that MSI are marketing their USB2.0 device as if it's a decent speed, whereas it's only slightly faster than USB1.1. It takes me 23 minutes to fill it up, which is way too long.
    Anyone else finding their Megastick any faster?
    After upgrading my firmware to 3.000.006 I have got the same problem I get the 'This device can perform faster' message' but this was not the case before the firmware upgrade when I had 2.0. Also with the old firmware I did almost filled my stick and I didn't timed it but I think it could take about 10 minutes.
    I have the MSI MEGA Stick 511 - Lite, 256M and it has no FM radio. Should I then not use the firmware listed as wothout FM?

  • MSI Mega Stick 1 problem with Nforce 2? Look here

Can anyone tell me how to solve it? Even i had updated the firmware to the newest but the problems still occur.

  • Mega Stick 528 don´t turn on.

    I have a Mega Stick 528 out of guarantee  :(    , and it has the this problem, it doesn´t turn on, unless I flash it, when I put the player another firmware, newer or older it works, but when I´m going to turn it on the second time, it doesn´t turno on, it´s so strange, it just works 2 times after I flash it. I´m from Argentina, and in my city there is no service, or a computer shop where I can fix it, and obviously is a soft problem, or that´s what I think.
    Some idea!!!!????

    i have the same problem, it doesn't turn on at all.
    i changed the batteries but no good.
    the screen only turns on when i connect it to my pc, the pc recognize it is attached, but displays no mass storage drives.
    the icon only appears for a second and then disappears and cannot be accessed.
    the screen on the mega stick turnes on while it is connected to the computer, and stating "connected".
    but it doesn't turn on, and i can't access the information stored on it.
    i have no idea what you meant by flashing it, or i would try that myself just to rescue my recordings...

  • Firmware 2.02 - 2.04 mega stick

    Hi,
    Is it true that after upgrading the firm 2.02 to 2.04 the record rate is reduced to 22 Khz maximum instead of 48Khz ?
    This is what is stated at the firmware upgrade page from MSI Mega Stick 1 ver. 2  at :
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/firmware/frm/spt_frm_ia_detail.php?UID=485
    If so it would be a major loss of quality for those who regularly use their stick as a recording device for meetings and so on
    Regards
    Nick

    Thanks for testing
    I really don't have a clue why MSI reduced the rate to 22Khz , it certainly doesn't tribute to its popularity.
    Why affraid of the RIAA ? , back in the 70ties millions of people started recording FM broadcastings (songs) on hughe taperecording devices , in the 80ties billions had a tapedeck , the nineties brought us the MP3 and CD burner .. why choking the bitrate on a MSI stick when there are trillions of people out in the world recording everything that can be recorded on every recordable device available... it's a sign of false purity ... or being chicken.
    I doubt anyone will use the FM recording capabilities of the MSI stick to become a millionaire by recording and processing illegal music (think about the quality it will result in .. even at 48Khz... even a deaf person wouldn't pay a buck to buy this kind of material.. lol) , considering other regions on the internet that provide digital files that can be used anywichway you want.
    So MSI .. stop fooling around , the professional copyright pirates won't use the MP3 stick , give us normal and legal users a firmware that makes the most out of the stick , functional and usable
    cheers,
    Nick
