Zen Vision M

got my Zen Vision M mp3 player out the cupboard this weekend, dusted it off and tried to use it. Total phail. apparantly the bettery was so far gone from not using it it had frozen and wouldnt even charge. found the solution on the net tho (ofcourse) apparently you have to hit the reset button.

ok, sounds simple, 2 things make this interesting tho:
1. it needs to be in the charger to reset it (no juice no restarting)
2. the reset button is under the plug when its plugged into the charger

uuh.. say again? yes that is correct, when its plugged in, you cant reset it because the reset button is under thep plug :D right, great planning there ^^ anywho solved it with a pin belt in an L shape.. put the pin in the reset hole, then pushed the plug on top of it, hey presto blue light starts flashing :P success!

let it charge for an hour then it was working fine again, woot.
