Sorry, it''s dead. It sounds like the platter motor is failing to spin up.

Since you have nothing more to lose at this point, you can try one trick I have used successfully a couple of times on Travelstars: hold the empeg horizontally in your left hand, and using your right hand, plug in the AC adaptor at the back. Immediately you hear the drive click, thump the SIDE of the player horizontally with the flat of your right hand once, maybe twice, HARD. If you do it at the right time, it may spin up giving you an opportunity to get your music off it. Good luck.

You will in any case be needing a new drive, unforch.
