"Battery Is Too Low System Shutdown"

I've had my Sansa e260 for about 8 months, I would use it between 1 -5 hours a day.All of a sudden, when I tried charging it through the USB Port it just says "battery is too low system shutdown." It won't charge so what is my problem? I hope I don't have to take the back off becuase I don't know where to find a screwdriver that small lol.

    When I power on the Sansa, I get a black screen with white text that says "Battery Is Too Low System Shutdown". I have tried to charge it and that did nothing. I removed the back and kept the battery out for a few minutes and put it back in and it still didn't help. I bought new cables to charge it with to no avail. Any ideas?

The battery has come loose from the contacts on the inside.

Remove the back (4 screws), remove the battery and put it back in securely.

Then charge it for a couple hours.





Best of Luck.

Having received no response in over a month, I assume this is no longer a problem.

Sounds like your battery is faulty and not charging. Try replacing the battery or just use the mains lead with the battery removed. If this keeps happening replace the system board

Sansa e280

Have you tried recharging the battery? If it is not showing when you connect it to your computer, try holding down the Menu/On-Off button for 15 - 30 seconds and see if it goes on. 
If you need a new battery this is a good place to get one:
