CD Rom Broken - Want to install ZEN Visio

My CD Rom is broken so naturally I cannot use the installation discs to install my freshly purchased Creative ZEN Vision M MP3 player. Anyone have a link to the software i need to download or any way of helping? I would greatly appreciate it...

Maybe Creative uses cheapo cd's becuase mine broke too.
I have 9 or 0 Creative software CDs, none of them have 'broke'. They seem to be of similar quality to CDs from Adobe, MicroSoft or Logictech.
I called Customer service who advised me that they do not supply replacement CD's because all the software is available on line - so why does the company supply an installation disk in the first place?
It's a courtesy- not everyone is online, not everyone has high speed Interent access.
I've recently had to perform a system reset on my Dell laptop (running Windows XP)so I had to reload the Zen software. Customer service gave me a list of software apps to download but they wouldn't load because the software couldn't detect the Zen. I was then told to download a Microsoft executable. So now my laptop recogises that I am connecting new hardware and identifies that it's a Zen but it still prompts me to use the installation disk but cannot find the drivers anywhere. I've tried to load the Creative software but it will not load because it cannot detect the Zen.
You can force Windows to look for the drivers manually. Use Browse to direct Windows to look for the drivers at the location where you've saved the downloaded drivers
Are there drivers available onlne?
Yes: top of page on the Creative banner, click Support--> Downloads--> MP3 Players--> Zen, select your model, language and Operating System, chose the drivers or software that you need. Be sure to read the instructions on the pop-up menus for instructions on how to install the updates.
Can anyone suggest anywhere where I can purchase a replacement disk? I have already tried eBay
Maybe someone here will have a copy for you, but really it's not that hard to download from the site.

  • Installing free Visio trial

    Why does MS offer a free trial that is such a pain to actually install? I just want to try Visio before I buy it but all the posts state that I need to create some workaround for the .img file.

    Hi,
    If you use Win8, please follow the link to mount and install it.

    If you are using a different operating system, a few additional steps are required before starting to install Visio.
    Here are some options:
    • Mount the image as an ISO virtual drive. There are popular tools such as Virtual Magic Disk to mount ISO/IMG disk image file as virtual CD-ROM drive and then install from the ISO file.
    • Extract .img. You can extract the .img into a directory using any tools that
    unzip the .img format (e.g., 7-zip) and then install from it.
    • Create a disc. Write the .img onto a CD and then install Visio from the CD.

    I have a Macbook Pro 15" with Mountian Lion.  I want to install an older game but I get the "Classic environment not supported" error.  I see some reference to ACGI and Apache software that may solve the problem but it is not in my Utilities file.  What to do??

    Here is a post I recently assembled for another similar question:
    With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.
    A related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included (google the term "Classic-On-Intel v 4.0.1 chubby bunny").

  • Want to install OS9 with an external CD drive

    Besides the great advice from Limnos so far...
    Is your eMac capable of booting OS9? One of the 1GHz models couldn't, any after that couldn't, and the ones that could need the special Install Disc that came with them.

  • Touch pad problem on Zen Visio

    I have a Creative Zen Vision: M with a broken touch pad. I already did a research on this forum about how to fix it and none that works for me. I mean, first the tap touch is fine but up/down scrolling is not working. Then up/down scrolling comes back but tap touch stops working. I'm thinking this is a hardware problem. There is any other way to fix it's By the way, my Zen already out of the warranty period.
    Is there anyway to just set it as a USB without using tap touch to set it's

  • My mid-2009 MacBook Pro's hard drive is near death. I want to install a new SSD and work from scratch. Please help.

    Recently, my mid-2009 MacBook Pro has been crashing when I close the screen ("it's having a problem recognizing when the screen is closed/open and deciding what to do, error overload etc.").  It wasn't an SMC issue so I took it to an Apple Store, ran some tests, and decided my hard-drive is failing.
    Not wanting to spend an insane amount of money on some "official apple hard-drive," I want to install a new 256GB SSD instead.  Hoping to squeeze as much life out of this computer as possible (in January I upgraded from 4 GB RAM to 8 GB), I would like to try and start from scratch, i.e. back-up important folders, music, photos etc. and only take that to the new hard-drive.  If someone could explain all the steps I need to take to safely complete this task (or point me in the direction of a guide) I'd appreciate it.
    Potentially Important info:
         Model:                mid-2009 13'' MacBook Pro
         Processor:          2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
         Memory:             4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
         Software:            OS X 10.8.4
    Some additional questions I have...
         Should I be concerned with making a fully bootable back-up (not sure what that is called) as well?  If so, what program should I use to create it?
         How much more life should I try and push out of this computer?  I'm an engineering student and really only use it for web-surfing, music, and
              word-processing.  The batter was replaced in March, the RAM was upgraded to 8 GB in January.  When the battery was swapped, the trackpad went           nuts so that's new too.  Only other issues are a slightly loose audio jack and the left side of the screen being slightly wobbly (hinge is worn I'm told).

    Well there is no "official Apple HD / SSD" in any regard, no worries there.
    If as you say youre only using same for surfing and word processing, why the need for a SSD? You would not notice any speed diff. in use on either of those,....in boot times yes, but in word or surfing, not.
    You can push it likely a few more years, for mere surfing and word processing,...many many years.   Up TO the point that any major fixes become unrealistic relative to getting a new(ER) machine.
    Concerned with a boot clone?  yes and no.  Its an ideal immediate recovery, since you cannot boot from Time Machine, ....in case of HD crash, recovery takes seconds from boot, or 20 mins or so from removing old and installing a clone. All the prosumers and pros have at least one updated clone of their prime machines.
    You can do a "fresh install" if you choose, however if your current drive is FINE, why not merely clone it and save yourself some headache?...., but that is your prerogative of course.    Ideally 2 drives, one to backup your data (you need that regardless of installing a new drive for sake of a backup/archive,...ideally 2 actually, not merely one).
    You could clone internal to NEW SSD/HD , ...then offload unnecessary files to an external to free up space and clutter and run off the clone, and this would only take a couple hours......the clone itself takes approx. 40+ mins.
    CLONE Apps :
    Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.

  • Can I purchase Mountain Lion and make a flash drive bootable? I do not want to install it on my Macbook Pro. I have Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro now, and due to my hard drive needing repair I need to boot off of another source, like my flash drive.

    Can I purchase Mountain Lion and make a flash drive bootable? I do not want to install it on my Macbook Pro. I have Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro now, and due to my hard drive needing repair, I need to boot off of another source, like my flash drive. I am in Paris and my Snow Leopard DVD is in Texas.

    Mac OS X has a built-in disk diagnostic and repair program called fsck or file system consistency check. Here’s how to verify and repair your startup disk with fsck.  As soon as you hear the startup tone, press and hold Command-S on the keyboard. Keep holding down those keys until you see a black screen with white lettering. This is called “booting into Single User Mode.”  As the Mac boots in this mode, the screen reports each step of the process. The line should end in root#.  Right after the root# prompt, enter the following: /sbin/fsck -fy
    If repairing the disk in single user mode fails, it means one of two things. Either your hard drive itself is failing (a hardware failure), or the directory damage on your hard drive is beyond the capability of the built-in repair procedures in OS X.

    If your account is disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
