Exclamation Can't erase internal memory. Reader buzzes on startup!

Hello to all eReaders!
I have problem with my PRS-500.
I wanted to load very small .lrf to reader (only 96Kb)

As usual I started Bookdesigner, created a book, converted to LRF, started Ebook Library, checked the file. It seemed to me all was ok.

I connected Reader via usb and discovered that Reader had a very small amount of internal memory - at least 116 KB of free space.
I thought that all is ok and loaded created LRF to Reader, then closed a programme and unplugged usb connector.

Reader stayed in "usb connected" mode. Damn! I pressed some buttons and nothing hapenned. I tried to reset it using paper clip - it buzzed at "Starting up" window.

I connected Reader to usb and ran Ebook Library - Reader status was "Error" and in browser section there were no files.

When i tried hard resetting Reader it was still buzzing.

I charged Reader with original charger and updated firmware to last update after 10 hard resets. It didn't help.

I tried to hard reset my reader when it was connected to charger, and did the same when it was plugged to usb.
Still no help.

I started it up with usb connected, and the same status displayed when it was loaded. when I started Ebook library the status had changed to "Don't disconnect when files transfering..", when I closed Library the status had cnahged to "usb connected..".Then I unplugged usb and the status was still the same.

I don't even know what to do else. Please help me to reanimate my Reader!

Best Regards, Brom.
