    So I bought the Creative Zen MP3-player last year, only problem is I lost the media centre disk that allows you organize your library. So I downloaded it from the Creative site, but every time I install it it says that it "can't locate installed components". Help? Suggestions?

    what model of Zen do you have? http://www.creative.com/language.asp?sDestUrl=/support/do…

    DAP-HD0014 :wink: There's only one set of download options for the entire set of Zen MP3 players, and the library centre should work for all. I tried plugging the bastard in when it said it couldn't locate the components, but still no joy. I'm wondering if it's just an update for the software that came with the disk.

    No joy. :( Downloaded and installed the drivers for the Zen Touch (you got me the right model), but all the other downloads including the Media Source or WTFever give me the same "unable to locate installed components" message (or something to that effect).

    switch the cable..... that might be the problem. This is why i love my phone. if i can't connect through cable Bluetooth baby

    I dunno, it's still charging itself off the cable and comes up with the "new hardware device" found message when I plug it in, I'm wondering if it needs software from the CD and that the downloaded software are just updates etc.?

    Quite often for those players you have to completely remove then re-install the software again when you run into that issue.

    LOL, better than that: I've had my computer rebuilt since the last time the software was on there...hence my current predicament. :D
