According to Curtis' website, if I use the mini CDrom that came with the player, I should be able to use that to refresh the firmware and it'll behave correctly once again.
Thing is, it shouldn't go bad in the first place. I have one of their 256MB models and it's still working great.
There are no firmware updates available on the website. I did manage to get the player to plug into the USB interface and stay on for over 8 minutes while I copied everything off the player.
I will try to use the CDrom with my Win98SE box to see if I can refresh the firmware and get it to stay on like it should.
How does the firmware get damaged in the first place?
