there's a possible error on the disk or the archos storage, - a certain corrupt file could possibly the one making the unit into freeze..

POst back here again

Thank you

This is how I solved the problem with the touch panel as of this time....

The first solution, the additional cable from Archos website or manual

Attach this cable to the archos, wait for a 10 seconds then the touch screen would work. If the cable won't work attach a wired mouse.

The second solution is a female to female usb. (If you don't have the additional cable from the website or the manual.)

Attached the cable that comes with your archos then the female to female usb adaptor, wait for a few seconds then the touch panel would work again. If it doesn't work attach the wired mouse wait for a few seconds until the archos recognizes the wired mouse. (

I hope this works to all archos.

You can find a manual on the Archos website.

Unfrotunately there appears to be NOTHING. I have checked the Archos website but they simplt don't have an online manual.
e-mails to their tech support remain unaanswered (about video file format and mpg playback getting out of sync.)

I hope it is is not the case that they are a French company and treat their Enlish speaking customers with utter contempt but sadly this is what comes across. Customer supper/user documentation etc. is thin on the ground.

Archos 3 will not play DRM protected songs. You may need to find a converter. I don't know if this is possible.

Hello,
There's only a small operation guide available for the Archos 3 Vision:
http://www.archos.com/support/download/manuals/Archos_3_v2_EN-FR.pdf

When exploring the player in My Computer on the PC, before disconnecting always
go through the icon "safely remove hardware'' in the right corner on the computer's screen below.

For transfers Window Media Player 11 can be used.
More information about using WMP11 see:
