Searched and found this on a discussion board (might work):

I had the exact same problem as you with my AJB recorder 6Gb. I found that
the battery spring on the top left hand corner of the unit was not making
contact properly with the battery. I VERY gently pulled the spring out with
a paitr of tweezers. Be careful as there is a wire soldered across this
spring and you don't want to break it! I bought new batteries (Energizer
ACCU 1.2v-1850mAh) and charged them overnight. I then reformatted the drive
from "My Computer" (right click and choose format) and installed the Rockbox
firmware version 1.4. Everything seems to be going perfectly now. I must
have knocked the unit around too much when I had it on my belt. I hope this
helps. By the way I am using Win XP Pro just in case there is a different
process involved when reformatting under other OS. Good Luck and try to stay
calm. My AJBR was almost thrown out of the window a couple of times)

Subject: Problems booting with toshiba 60G drive


I've run into a problem, and not sure if there is a valid solution for this.

I upgraded my JBR-20 with a Toshiba MK6021GAS almost exactly a month ago.
It's been working great up until today, when I turned it on to discover the
following message:

        hd register error
           sc1 (85) 128
           sn1 (170) 128
           sc2 (170) 128
           sn2 (85) 128


The unit then shuts off after a few seconds. I tried listening to it while
turning it on again, and the HD doesn't even spin up. It just click-hums, as
if there isn't enough juice -- which is odd, because it had been freshly
charged the day before, and was at least 70% when I put it away for the
night.


I've left it on the charger, but don't know if it will actually charge
without being 'booted', just to see if that makes a difference. It doesn't
spin up while plugged in either.

i've been running a CVS version from mid-Jan, but unfortunately don't have
the ability to check which one.. :-\


Has anybody successfully managed to solve this error?


Thanks.
