How can I fix my RCA H115A MP3?? HELP!!!?

I have an RCA H115A MP3 player. The battery is completely dead. It won't even connect to the computer. The screen will go on for like .2 seconds then turns off. If I continue to leave it connected to my computer long enough will it eventually recharge itself? Please it was an important gift. If someone knows if I need a new charge cord or anything to help me fix this please inform me! Thank you for your time! :)

Try this, it may get it going:
1) With the unit turned off, plug the small end of the USB cable into the device.

2) Hold the center joystick down (the little squarish button in the center of the scroll pad)

3) While holding the center joystick down with the mini B USB cable plugged into the MP3 player, plug the flat standard USB end into your computer. (Not into a USB hub)

4) The unit should start up and a message come on the screen that says "Transferring..."

5) Give the device 10 seconds ... the hard drive inside the unit should mount on your Mac's desktop

6) You may use the unit as a hard drive mounting it with these steps, or load the unit with music by finding the right place on the hard drive by digging into the folders contained
