Does anyone know anything about the Creative Zen Micro? Specifically, what to do if the screen is barely functioning?

I found mine the other day, and got it working, sort of (as I wanted to listen to mp3/mp4 files without uploading them to a server somewhere).

It seems to function - battery works, I can access files via my laptop - but the screen is super-faded and so I can't really use the interface. 😭

Anyone??

This extreme closeup shows that the device's buttons have a slightly grainy texture, while the rest of the front face is smooth (yet shows scratches from wear and tear).
