As long as you download the relevant drivers for your Operating System there shouldn't be a problem. ;)

ok man

i have another issue with the BIOS  updating,
 
when i download the @bios program to update my bios it gave error when trying to install the program

"open device failure" or something i researched  a bit and found out  the probably cause its because i didnt  install windows fresh instal

i installed it on existed OP, but i thought that shouldnt be problem since i  replace all windows folder files .

i dont plan fresh install windows   soon do you have solution ?

Yes you were lucky!

We don't recommend using the @BIOS program as it sits on top of the OS and that makes it far more likely to fail and that is not good!!!

Use the QFlash utility which is part of the BOIS and disable the Keep DMI Data on the QFlash homepage. If you need any more info on how to do it we have produced a FAQ on How to Update the BIOS. It can be found here:

I can't say I've ever tried with an MP3 player but i don't see why it shouldn't work as long as it is formatted as FAT32. You might find that the machine will have trouble addressing it if it is a large one though as we have found in general that the smaller memory sticks tend to work better.
