Cheap coby mp725 No OS?

My brother got a coby mp725 MP3 player from his work for working there for 5 years or something like that. Anyway, he was loading it up with music and it was not working correctly. Kept renaming files and just adding to them instead of overwriting them. He couldn't get the extra files to delete so he formatted the whole thing.

Well now it won't come on at all. You can attach it to a computer and it shows up as an 8gb storage device. He can move files to and from it now. It just doesn't want to play MP3s anymore.

We've looked all over the internet looking for an OS for it or a firmware flash or something to no avail. He has emailed the company but not heard back from them. Anybody know how to fix this thing? Or even if it's really "formatted" like he thinks it is?
