Windows 2000 Pro Installation Problems

[Digging4Truth]

Hep, Hep Me....


I recently bought a Creative Zen V that I will not have any use for but, rather than return it, I will probably give it to my daughter.

Heres the problem.

She has Windows 2000 Pro on her laptop., Zen requires WMP10 or 11 and neither will install on Windows 2000 Pro.

So I have a Creative Zen V which will not be reognized by the laptop until I get WMP10 or 11 installed (if it will even then) but W2000 Pro won't accept them.


Can anyone offer some help?

Thanks

Here is the easiest solution for Windows 2000:

1. Download my own drivers with support for Zen V & Zen V Plus

2. Unpack & Install MTP9x-2k.EXE

3. Choose ctpdmtp.inf & click right mouse button & select Install

4. Restart Windows

5. When Windows has booted up again plug your ZEN V in to a USB port, if it askes for a driver please refer it to the ctpdmtp.inf file.

6. Download & install MediaMonkey

7. Now Zen V should work fine! It should appear as Creative Zen V or Creative Zen V Plus in MediaMonkey after a few seconds.

Seems your only solution is to do it manually. ONLY Win XP is supported and a lot of people are steamed. Most are saying they will return the product and get an Ipod
