Zen not recognized, no drivers found XP

'Zen not recognized, no drivers found XPA I thought I'd share my recent experience in switching computers since I didn't find this info anywhere on Creative's site. Zen 32MB, Windows XP
. No drivers found
I vaguely recall having to do this when I bought the thing, but the drivers it needs are wpdusb.sys and wudfrd.sys and the best way to get them is to install Windows Media Player , since that forces Windows to see them. It looks like Creative has made (and posted) separate drivers for newer operating systems that don't use these type of drivers at all.
2. Unrecognized USB device
In trying to figure out why it couldn't find the drivers, the Zen stopped being recognized at all by any of my computers. A reboot - sticking the paper clip in the reset hole while powering it up - fixed that.

the ipod itself requires no special drivers and only uses the standard USB mass storage drivers
check the USB port you are using to make certain:
1) it is a high powered USB port
2) check device manager to make certain the drivers for the USB ports are functioning

Powerbook not recognizing printer drivers

so, my powerbook for some reason is not recognizing new HP printer drivers. this has happened twice now with two different printers (both mac-compatible). this is a new thing--i used to use an HP printer quite happily with this laptop.
here's what happens:
i install. installation is successful, hooray. the hp device manager opens, i choose my device (the Deskjet F300, in this case), and i'm ready to go.
i open Word to print a doc. i get an error saying "word cannot print due to a problem with the current printer."
i open my Print Preferences panel and lo and behold, there's no printer in the list. i click the [+] button to add a printer.
my Printer Browser appears. the DJ F300 appears in the list as a USB device (there are no other printers). I select it.
in the subwindow below, i see this:
-printer name: Deskjet F300
-location: home
-print using: [dropdown menu of printer drivers]
i can't proceed until i select a driver. the F300 is not listed among the HP drivers in the dropdown menu, so i click the button that says More Printers.
the AppleTalk browser opens. there are no printers, but after a moment, a dialog box pops up saying a new driver has been detected, and do i want to reload the browser? i click OK to reload the browser.
and nothing happens. the driver still does not appear anywhere.
i have uninstalled and reinstalled the software, both from the CD and by downloading it from HP's site. i have run disk utility, but it didn't help. does anyone have any ideas?
if this is at all related--my computer also doesn't recognize that i've agreed to my iTunes user agreement (i have to re-agree every time i launch iTunes) and it doesn't remember that i want make iPhoto my default (although i click OK every time). it also won't remember changes to my screen saver--all small, annoying things i can live with, but maybe a clue to what's not working?

When you click on the blue circle in the upper right with the white magnifying glass, if it isn't indexing, it will just show you a search field with the text Spotlight next to it, and any results from your last search if you had results. If you are able to search for stuff there, usually that means the index is OK. If no search results come up when you search, that means the index needs to be rebuilt. To rebuild the index go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight and select Privacy. Drag the hard drive icon in there, and then remove it with the minus sign below. Indexing will restart, and will be indicated in the Spotlight menu until it is finished. This may take several hours.

Zen V:M 60 GB- solution to Zen not recognized by pc and not charg

Problem:? Zen V:M 60GB not being recognized or charged by my PC. After the initial install, I thought?I had done everything right, so I left the Zen connected to the USB port to fully charge overnight. I went to turn it on the next morning but the Zen was?unresponsi've and would not turn on, eventhough the blue LED light near the power button was flashing. I immediatley uninstalled then reinstalled the software, same results. I then hit the Creative site and tried all of their fixes, but nothing worked. Email support was redundant and forget about Creative's phone support, with their inconvenient times, that needs to be addressed, come on Creative?it's called?"outsourcing". So I was left to fend for myself.
Solution:? Connect the Zen to the PC and Insert the installation CD. Only select the Zen Vision M software from the list of "software to be installed", uncheck the others, click "next" and STOP what you're doing!. At this point, patience is required. Wait until the Zen battery icon pops up on the Zen screen and/or until the Zen turns on. The window of opportunity is small at this point, so immediately start the software install. If you have the software installed already, then select the "Repair" option. If this is a complete reinstall then proceed with the installation as directed.
In a nutshell, the Zen has to have some power in order for the software and pc?to recognize the player. What we all did was, after receiving the Zen for Xmas, we all turned it on and started?messing with the player and then the battery died before installing. Hopefully this resolves your problem. Good luck!

Well after resetting the thing for the 0th time it seems to be ok. Although I don't know why the first 9 were any different. If it continues to work then disregard this thread. If not I'll post it with any follow-up problems.

Gnome stuck in fallback mode - not recognizing nvidia drivers

Every time I start a gnome session it is stuck in fallback mode. Checking under System Settings > Details > Graphics I see that the Driver is listed as Unknown and Experience is Fallback. Forced Fallback Mode is OFF. I cannot get it to recognize the nvidia driver (I have also tried nouveau but it did not recognize that either). I have tried re-installing the nvidia driver and rebooting, but I can't seem to fix the problem . Here are the logs that I thought might be relevant. If you need to see anything else please let me know . Thanks.

There is one thing I forgot to clarify, have setup up the pc as a server so I do not have direct access to the server. Everything is forwarded over ssh (using nx to connect to the server and start a gnome session). Starting KiTTY (a modification of PuTTY) with x11 forwarding I do not see any windows when I run "xinit -- /usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp". I get the following:

I remember when I would start the pc that startx I could never get to run, I would always start the gui using gdm, which was the only thing I could get to work. I do not have a .xinitrc. I believe the nx connects and issues gnome-session to start the session but I am not sure.

Zen not recognized anywhere on pc. Now what do I

?I have Windows media player and all that, and have done everything I have seen on this site. What do I do now?

Based on the date of your post and the fact that Windows XP SP3 came out around the same time, did you, by chance, update Windows to SP3?
I have two different PCs that my Zen V worked on for more than a year. After updating to SP3 they are no longer recognized.
Something specific to SP3 breaks Windows ability to recognize the Zen. I know it is specific to SP3 because I kept my PC up to date with ALL Windows updates (Critical, Software, Hardware), prior to SP3 and had no problems.
Something in SP3 is to blame. I have two recently updated to SP3 PCs to prove it.

Windows Vista not recognizing ZEN Mi

I upgraded to Windows Vista 32-bit ultimate, and my ZEN Micro is not recognized. I have let Vista search for drivers online automatically, but it finds no solution. Creative says there is nati've support, so why is my ZEN not recognized?

Update:?I downloaded the XP driver and ran it in XP SP2 compatibility mode. My ZEN now shows up under My Computer, however the device is still not recognized by MediaSource, ZENcast, or the playsure sync manager. I get the error "no device connected" even though it is showing up in My Computer and I can view my files. Any ideas?Message Edited by michaelgazin on 04-8-2007:58 PM

T60 system not recognizing drivers.

I have a T60 laptop, model 2613-HKU. Recently I just reinstalled Windows XP. After the OS installation, I installed every drivers listed on Lenovo's website:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-62928.html
Still, under "Device Manager", I saw a list of uninstalled devices:
-Biometric Coprocessor
-Ethernet Controller
-Network Controller
-PCI Device
-SM BUS Controller
-Unknown Device
-Video Controller (VGA Compatible)
So I think in this case my issue would be likely to caused by the system not recognizing the drivers? Any help or suggestion would be really appreciated. I have posted a similar post before since I thought I only have an issue with the wireless system, so I apologize if anyone consider this somewhat a duplicate post.

Just checkin: Lenovo driver installs have two steps: 1. Extract 2. Install. Did you do step 2?
When you run the downloaded file it extracts, usually to a directory under C:/DRIVERS, then you go to that directory, and run the installer (usually setup.exe, but not always - check the installation instructions).
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

Zen Xtra- Installed drivers, but when connected, "USB Device Not Recognized&qu

Hello- I'm trying to install a Creative Zen Xtra mp3 player on Windows XP. I installed all of the drivers and software, but when I connected the player, I got an error from Windows saying the "USB device is not recognized". I tried downloading all the new drivers and software from Creative, but it's no use. I was hoping maybe someone would have the inf file so I can install the driver manually. I can't find it on the installation CD or online anywhere. Thanks for any help!?~Jim

having a similar problem myself, recently misplaced the original usb 2.0 cord that came with my microphoto and unable to find a replacement, getting the same message though from other 5pin usb's I've tried

1st generation iPod not recognized on Vista - drivers / hardware not found

I have a new PC, which now very unfortunately runs Windows Vista as an operating system - I have installed iTunes latest version 7.4 but still the PC does not recognize my iPod or doesn't find the hardware - can anyone help?

Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:
iPod missing in My Computer and in iTunes
iPod is not recognized properly by computer when USB drivers are not installed properly or are out of date
If you are using a laptop, this page might help: iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB

Zen sleek photo drivers not recognized by computer

I have a zen sleek photo that is not recognized by my laptop. I've reinstalled the software 3x and it still gives me a dialog box stating that "an error occurred in the installation of the device.the data is invalid " The software works in my other 2 desktop computers. I had the same situation happen with my zen
micro and I had to edit the registry. I was hoping somebody know the link on that fix. I got it on this board.
Any advice would be geatly appreciated..

branded34,

Zen Micro Freezes when I plug in USB cable+USB not recognized at ti

Ok, I know you, the reader, has heard this complaint posted over and over on the Creative forums, and you would probably tell me to SEARCH THE FORUMS. Well, I did, and I found no answer or solution to my problems. So..here goes nothing.
I recently purchased a Black 5gb Creative Zen Micro, I was really content and happy with it...that is until I plugged it into my USB 2.0 Card. The moment I do that (I've tried plugging it in into every USB 2.0 slot, and NO, this isn't a hub, but a PCI card), The Zen Micro freezes! I have to resolve this by removing the cover and taking out the battery, then reinserting the battery. At the same time my Zen Micro freezes, a little bubble pops up on my computer screen saying "USB Device Not Recognized". I'm going absolutely out of my mind here, and am on the verge of returning the Zen Micro, and might get a replacement, and if that doesn't work, just returning the Zen altogether for a refund and getting a Rio Carbon. I really like the Zen, so PLEASE PLEASE help me out here!
Things I've Tried That Did Not Work:
-Uninstall/Reinstalling Zen Explorer, Mediasource (basically everything on CD)
-Updating the drivers for Zen Micro found on Nomadness.net
-Updating Firmware for Zen Micro
-Going into rescue mode and cleaning up, Formatting, reloading firmware, and rebooting.
-Trying the USB 2.0 Card in different PCI Slots
-Rotating the order in which I connect the USB cable to Zen Micro and PC
-Uninstalling/Reinstalling the drivers, even when the Zen Micro pops up as "Unknown Device"
-Reading tips/hints on Nomadness.net
I have scoured the forums, and have not found anything useful or new. I know its not the USB 2.0 Card's problem, since I plugged in my USB mouse into all the ports on the USB Card, and it worked fine.
Note: When I plug the USB cable that came with the Zen Micro into the integrated USB slots on the motherboard (USB .), it at times, does work, but even then, not a high chance of it happening. Even if I do successfully connect the Zen to a USB . slot without it freezing up, the Zen ends up not being detected by any program, like Window Media Player, Mediasource, or Creative Zen Micro Explorer.
I am going out this weekend and am gonna try to buy a new USB Cable, and if that doesn't work, returning the cable, and returning the Zen Micro to be replaced. AND IF THAT DOES NOT WORK...GOODBYE CREATIVE! HELLO RIO! But please, any help you guys could give would be greatly appreciated. I will also try to contact Creative Customer Support, but I doubt they'll tell me anything new, if I could even connect to them without being put on hold.
System Specs:
Windows XP Professional SP2
Creative Zen Micro Firmware .02.05
USB 2.0

Yep, that's exactly my issues to.....no matter what I've done, including replacing the USB 2.0 card which WAS and Adaptec DuoConnect 2.0 card which works fine with every other USB device ever connected to it, the Zen Micro 6g is NOT recognized by Creative Media Source or WMP. It is only recognized by the PC in Device Manager, and it has a yellow marker on it, which tells me the drivers are not installed. I know I don't need the drivers installed, but even after installing them, it tells me the drivers are not installed.
However, the answer is: it's definitely not the Micro, since it works flawlessly on my other PC and on my Toshiba notebook. So, it's some compatibility issue on that one PC. Since I refuse to let things be, I am reformatting that PC, reinstalling from scratch with WinXP and sp2. This PC has WinXP Pro but it has other issues so a reformat is in order anyway. Hopefully, this will resolve the issues. If not, then I say it's incompatibility with the Intel 865Perl m.b. But I'm at a loss as to why it won't work when plugged into the Adaptec card too.

Creative Zen V won't charge, is not recognized, simply not work

hey. couple of weeks ago i bought myself a creative v zen. i have win xp prof sp2 and everything was working fine. few days ago suddenly media explorer crashed while i was transfering music to the player. i had to reset my player. since then, my zen is simply not recognized, neither by media explorer, nor by windows itself. there's always a mtp device being found, but it won't install the drivers. i reinstalled all the drivers and all the software, i downloaded all the updates, but it's still not working. my player won't even charge itself. only if i'm lucky enough. and everytime i turn on the zen, it says that it's rebuilding the media library. does anyone know how to fix that thing ?

Have you try running Cleanup from Rescue mode?

Zen Micro not recognized - 1 millionth complai

I've read scores of posts on this topic: my Zen Micro isn't recognized by my computer.
When I connect the player to my computer, I get a message that the "usb device is not recognized" and the player itself freezes and the only solution is to remove the battery.
I'm using the v2.-firmware. My pc uses WindowsXP Home Edition, SP2.
Things I've already tried:
- uninstalled and reinstalled the creative drivers and software
- downloaded every possible driver or software update the creative website has to offer for my OS
- tried another usb slot and another usb cable
- updated the usb drivers
- uninstalled the usb ports and reinstalled them
- in the hardware list, double clicked the "unknown device" that should be the player and tried to manually direct it to the correct drivers
- connected another Zen Micro to my pc, this one also isn't recognized
- connected my Zen Micro to another pc running Linux, this works!
- cleaned up the disk in the recovery menu
- went to the regedit menu, adjusted the permissions in hkey_local_machine>system>Enum
All of these were possible solutions I found online, but none of them work. I already contacted Tech Support through e-mail, but the only advice they give me are things I've already tried, even though I specifically mention the list of all the things I've already tried in EVERY e-mail I exchange with them.
One thing they also advized me to do, is to reload the firmware, but this is impossible since the computer won't recognize that the player is indeed connected to it.
The funny thing is, if I remove all the creative drivers and software and then reinstall it all, there's a slim chance of it working again -- temporarily. Sometimes the player is still not recognized, sometimes it gets recognized by the pc but not by the software, sometimes it'll work perfectly but only once. In this case, it'll work for just that moment but the next day, when I reconnect the player (without even rebooting the pc or anything) it'll just go back to the same old "usb device not recognized" message.
Is this the time when I'm officially allowed to get desperate?

Daniel,
thanks for your reply!
I'd already installed the hotfixes your referred to, but did so again - just to make sure. Unfortunately, the problem remains...
st time I connected the player after installing the hotfixes, I didn't get any "usb device not recognized"-message. The player was listed in Device Manager, but unfortunately the software still didn't acknowledge that a player was connected (I tried Creative MediaSource Organizer and Windows Media Player 0). Meanwhile, the player itself still freezes. You get as far as the "now playing" screen, but it doesn't go to the "connected" screen you're supposed to see when you've connected your player and you're going to transfer data. Again, the only way to shut down the player was to remove the battery.
2nd time I reconnected it, I suddenly got a "new hardware found" message. A few seconds later the pc reports that the new hardware is installed correctly and is ready for use, followed by the old "usb device not recognized" message. Player is frozen, as usual.
3rd time. Back to square one: player is frozen and I get the old "device not recognized" message again.

FAQ : Zen Micro Not Recognized by Xp & Wm

Hi all,
I was very unhappy these last 2 months because my Zen Micro firmware 2.xx was not recognized anymore by my laptop and Xp told me erverytime that I plugged my Zen that a new device was about to be installed.
Finally I found the solution by my own :
Choose
==> Install device
==> Specify a folder for drivers : \Windows\Inf
Then my player worked.
I don't know il this will be useful to anybody but it can help I think and you won't have to format just for such a problem (ps : I guess this technique works for any usb device not recognized and already installed or that does not need drivers)

In fact I struck while the iron was hot and added it to the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net here.

My Zen Micro Problem--USB Device Not Recogni

I'm terribly terribly sorry if this question has already been answered, but I tried searching through the forums and found no solution to my problem. Although my Zen had worked fine for a few monthns (aside from the loose headphone jack grr), my computer recently doesn't recoginize it. When I plug it in, a yellow box that says "USB Device not Recognized" pops up. I tried plugging it in other slots but I still get the same message. I even tried it on another computer and it still wasn't recognized. I repeatedly unistalled/installed the software and drivers from both the cd and website. I also uninstalled the MTP but now I don't know how to install it again. I even reformated my Zen. Oh, and I'm using WinXP. Is there any hope for my Zen? Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

So you were on the v.2 firmware? And now you've switched to v. Or did I read that incorrectly?
If it ceased to recognize your player using v.2, you might want to try uninstalling the player from your USB port (you can do this through the system manager). If you're receiving this error message using v., then try unistalling the player driver from the USB port (again, in system manager), restart your computer, then reinstall the driver. I've had to do that a few times for my digital camera. If that doesn't work, you might try contacting tech support.
Good luck!
