Zen Sleek Photo Driver nee

I lost my zen sleek photo installation cd and now need the drivers, what should i do'? could anyone upload somewhere the installation cd image file?

I had the same problem. After stumbling around I finally clicked the "Identify Your Product" link in the "Downloads" section and then selected MP3 players. This gave me a page listing all the MP3 devices with their product numbers (http://93.95.7.84/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCG....com,case=0848). From this page, I selected the Zen Sleek (NOT the?Photo!). That brought me to this page: http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ring=DAP-HD008.
I downloaded the latest DRIVER?there (version 2.0.00). Direct link: http://us.creative.com/support/downl..._US_2_0_00.EXE?When you're installing, it will say things about Nomad Jukebox, but just keep going. It worked for me. Hope that works for you also!

  • Zen Sleek Photo Driv

    I just bought a sleek photo, i cant install the driver and the explorer wont recognize it. I own a legit version of XP but i formatted and installed it so many times that i cant register it anymore, so i have a version of windows xp pro that cannot be upgraded to service pack or 2, it doesnt say it requires service pack 2 or anything on the box but thats the only thing i can assume it could be. Do you know if it does require it, if it does is it possible tog et a driver compatible with it. thanks

    You can give firmware update a try but I'm afraid what coachop said is true. I don't have personal experience with screen replacements but sounds like this is the path where you're heading.

  • Zen Sleek Photo "driver not found&qu

    Hello, I recently did a repair install of XP with SP2 and after re-installing all of the Creative programs/drivers etc I can no longer connect my ZSP to my computer. Every time I plug the ZSP into the usb port I get a new hardware install dialog box and then it says it cannot install the hardware because no drivers can be found for the product. I have done a clean install of everything from the CD that was included with the player and still nothing. I have read all the sticky on this forum and still no luck. Does anybody have any suggestions? All of the drivers are up-to-date amnd all of the windows updates are complete. I have tried different USB ports, uninstall and re-install of both hardware and software and I have tried just re-installing the drivers. Everything worked perfectly before the re-install of windows so I am confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.Message Edited by Varroa on 09-29-200709:44 AM

    Well, ran some program called "fixup" that is suppose to correct some problems with WMP 0/ and creative products and the MTP driver loaded and my player was recognized!

  • Zen Sleek Photo, Video Format Nee

    Can somebody please alter or hack a firmware for this device to play videos...
    Yes I know there are other Creative players out there that will proberly offer Vid playback,, but to round this excellent device off - a video player would have been ideal, mpg or Mtv or QT format.
    Yes Great for playing Mp3 and showing Photos, and listening to the FM..
    But with a 20GB HD, a Video player would have been Great to watch Movies as well...
    Maybe even Creative might be tempted ?Message Edited by nuttycomputer on 04-2-2006 04:33 PM

    What do you mean probably offer video playback on other Creative players? The Vision:M can do all those things and more right now. It is the best player currently available. The Zen Sleek Photo is just Creatives color screen audio player. They are trying to reach every sector. Those that just want music, and those that want to spend a little more to get a video enabled player.

  • Creative Zen Sleek Photo & Windows Vi

    I've got a Creative Zen Sleek Photo player, and I just got a new computer for school. Since all new computers come standard with Vista, I can't download any of my Creative software because it is not compatible with Vista. Is there any kind of?download update or file that I can get so that I can make the software compatible and install it's

    You do not need to install the software on the disc. The driver is nati've to the Vista OS. Windows Media Player can Sync to the player rip cds, ect.

  • ZEN SLEEK PHOTO & WINDOWS 98 SE!! AAAAAARGGH!

    Hi!
    Apologies in advance if this problem has already been raised and addressed, but due to a mismatch of information, I find I have now invested in a lovely mp3 player (namely ZEN SLEEK PHOTO) I can't use. The problem? It's mimimum OE requirement is XP and I'm still running WINDOWS 98 SE. Okay, obviously the solution (ahem) is to upgrade to the XP System, but, I'm hearing all sorts of talk of driver updates, installations, fixes etc and wondered if someone knew of any available remedy here on Creative. At the present time, the installation disc is not chuffed with the OE system and I can get no further.
    Anyone have any nice, straight-forward step-by-step solution they'd care to share?
    Cheers

    <EM>It's a PlaysForSure device, and uses the same drivers any other PlaysForSure device uses. It's standardized.</EM>
    I've finished downloading the drivers required. Do I now just need to connect my player or am I required to install the software on the ZEN SLEEK PHOTO first? The last time this was unsuccessful because of the Operating System. So if all this works, I'm guessing that it will be a case of transferring mp3 files (hopefully straight from my hard dri've through WMP) into the Zen player.
    Can you please confirm the procedure using WMP?

  • Zen Sleek Photo Installation Wo

    Hey guys, I just bought a Creative Zen Sleek Photo MP3 player and i'm having trouble installing the driver. After plugging it in, windows detects the new hardware and goes thru the installation process the driver. At the end it tells me:
    "Cannot install this Hardware.
    There was a problem installing this hardware.
    MTP Device
    An error occured during the installation of the device.
    The required section was not found in the INF."
    There are only two INF files, one located in the root and one within Walmart/Files. I manually directed the installation wizard to both directories but the end result for both is the same. Nothing Happens.
    Just wondering if anyone has encountered a similar problem or if there is a fix around for this?
    Cheers
    (winxpsp2)

    Hello, I have had the same problem and had great help when I emailed creative.com. They recommended I uninstalled the software, disabled my broadband and disabled my spamkiller and security packages. Once I had done this I reinstalled and now my player was recognized immediately. This had never happened before. I now can download. Hope this helps Forgot to say also I had to make sure I had windows service pack 2.

  • ZEN Sleek Photo & Windows 2000 p

    I have recently purchased a ZEN Sleek Photo (firmware version .0.0e). I bought this from Argos, where it states quite clearly in the catalogue "Minimum PC specification Microsoft Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP..." After finding the software refused to install on Windows 2000, I contacted Creative. Customer services refused to help, and I found their general attiture offensi've. On contacting Argos, their reply was "As it states on the website I can confirm that this item will only be compatible with operating system Windows XP and later systems." Well thank you Argos. Verry helpfull after already stating it works with Windows 2000!
    I have found a latency driver
    http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/download.asp?DriverLang=033&searchString=+P4S_PCDR V_US__0_00.exe&Image.x=26&Image.y=3
    This and WMP9 work with the player under Windows 2000, except that the track numbers are all -. I have found reports of this being a fault of WMP9. I then tried winamp, as it apparently works with the Sleek Photo.
    http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=9d604eed60033b9e5de774d3d597078d& threadid=238885&perpage=40&highlight=&pagenumber=3
    It will not show the player at all (even after reinstalling drivers and winamp).
    Can anyone help? I've no idea what to do next, and the player is currently a very expensi've paperweight.

    I don't think this is going to help but here's what I've experienced with winamp:
    I'm running xp/sp2. I was using winamp 5.2 and it would work with my zen touch and also with my iri'ver h0 (even though it would take a real long time detecting my iri'ver). Then I switched to winamp 5.24 and it wouldn't detect my iri'ver anymore, in fact, for some weird reason, winamp figured it was a cd dri've... Can't say if 5.24 worked with my zen touch since I didn't try it but it definitely didn't with my iri'ver. When I switched back to version 5.2 both players worked alright. Maybe somebody else knows if your problem could be a bug in the new version? There definitely is one with my iri'ver.

  • Zen Sleek Photo, Connection/software prob

    I bought a Zen Sleek Photo 20 GB, installed the software, recharged the battery and connected it properly to my pc. Now my PC gives me a message that it can install the driver, wich I thought i already had by installing the software. anyways, I click OK, but it doesn't seem to find anything, and it also says this, so I click [X]
    I register online, all the codes and whatsoever, click Creative Zen Sleek Photo Media Explorer and... nothing 'Your creative Zen sleek photo isn't connected to your PC' it says, but it totally is!
    So my pc seems to recignise my Sleek Photo as being a 'Zen Creative' but the software doesn't! something's odd here, since I properly installed, registered and connected it. On 3 different USB's, both direct ports as Hubs.
    Now I might also include that although my pc seems to recognise the Sleek Photo, on-screen of my Sleek Photo, there is no indication whatsoever that it notices it's connected to the PC.
    I read something about the Firmware ( which I can't install since I don't have Service Pack ).
    The MediaSource Organiser seems to be working fine though.
    I re-installed the Software TWICE, reseted and disk-cleared the Zen Sleek Photo, but nothing seems to work. can someone help me? I'm really desperate for help
    And i totally don't want to have spent ?99.95 ( Plus ?9.95 for some kick-ass headphones ) for nothing here
    I think I posted about everything hee now. any ideas or comments? thanx in advance.

    I have Windows 2000 so this means I "can't" buy Zen Sleek Photo because it requires Windows XP?
    Or is it possible to use Zen sleek photo in Windows 2000 somehow. I don?t need WMediaplayer (0) or Creative MediaSource, they are not so important in use I think.
    Can I install drivers to W2000?

  • ZEN Sleek photo not recognized tried everything HEL

    i bought my zen photo sleek today, the software installed, the device was recognized. I started transferring files which stopped at file 97 and didn't do anything. I clicked cancel which made the tranfer window freeze and not respond anymore. Task manager didn't open so i rebooted my computer. After this the device wasn't recognized anymore. since then i've tried EVERYTHING i could find on this forum but failed. all setting seem to be ok, i reinstalled al the software twice, downloaded the hotfixes etc. nothing works. I mailed customer service and am wiating for a reply, anyone any ideas in the meantime ?

    Apologies, I just noticed this was a Sleek Photo, rather than the original Sleek.
    I'm guessing the Sleek Photo must be PlayForSure, so for some reason Windows is not picking up the MTP device driver. You can try forcing Windows, through Device Manager, to look in the directory C:\WINDOWS\INF where the MTP driver information is located.
    Failing that, have a look at the link "problems with connecting using MTP firmware" in the FAQ post.

  • Zen Sleek photo not recogniz

    I had my zen sleek photo working fine for about 3 weeks, then all of a sudden it's not recognized.
    I've spent the past 3 hours looking around on the site and messing around, and i've given up hope.
    I've reinstalled the software, installed and reinstalled the drivers, rebooted and cleaned up the zen player, tried deleting my USB ports and reinstalling them, tried different ports, tried the permissions and the usb zen connection registry hacks, pretty much every solution i can find.
    I have win XP, SP2. I haven't got a hub, i've tried all 6 usb ports on my computer (overkill i know), taken out all other usb connections except for my mouse.
    I don't necessarily want to update firmware on the player as most people say that only messes things up and you can't go back, but seeing as it only recognizes the player as an MTP device i doubt I could update anyways.
    In the device manager, the zen shows up as a portable device, and there's a little ! by the picture (meaning it's not working properly, obviously). When you expand it, there are clearly no drivers for it as it says the driver info is not available.
    When I first plug it in, it recognizes the device and tries to find applicable drivers for it. I've let it search my entire computer before, and it supposedly finds something as the two folders appear with data transferring between the two, but immediately afterwards it stops and says:
    "There was an error installing this hardware:
    Zen Sleek Photo
    An error occurred during the installation of this device
    A service installation section in this INF is invalid."
    I assumed this meant my drivers were bad, so I went on a mission and found several different drivers, and installed these, but I guess they didn't work as it still doesn't work.
    I downloaded the Zen Sleek Photo XP PlaysForSure Firmware upgrade program, and it says "Your player is not connected, please connect your player"
    The Zen charges, so the cable is OK and I haven't done anything to it since the last time it worked.

    yep. man mine did the same thing. i emailed the crew here and they said to reset it. w/ the lil reset button. they also said to enter it in recovery mode. i didnt know what that meant. lol so i just reset and tried it. then it werked

  • Creative Zen Sleek Photo Firmware Download does not recognize my pla

    My Creative Zen Sleek Photo recently froze up. After restarting it, the "firmware problem" screen popped up. After reading up on it a bit, I decided to first clean, then reformat, and then reload the firmware. Everything went smoothly until I went to load the firmware back onto my Zen.
    For whatever reason a screen pops up that says that my device is not connected to the computer, when it, in fact, is. I have tried several things including uninstalling Windows Media Player and repeatedly cleaning and reformatting in hopes that it would recognize it.
    I have had no prior problems with the computer recognizing the device and I have loaded quite a bit of music onto it through this computer. Can anyone please help? Any more ideas? Anything will be helpful and appreciated. Thanks?

    HelloHave a look at this thread http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...ead.php?t=6328?I had a similar problem with a Zen Sleek Photo and I am sure that this was the thread I used to recover the player when a firmware upgrade failed. Regards?

  • Zen Sleek Photo Freezes/Locks Up after about 5 minutes usage (need to drain battery to recov

    Hi,
    My 20G Zen Sleek Photo has just recently transformed itself into a useless brick.
    No matter what I try and do, it always ends up freezing after about 5 minutes usage. When you force a reset it does unlock but when it comes back on it sticks on the Creative "copyright" start up screen.
    I've reformatted and re-installed the firmware several times but with the same result.
    font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">
    The only time it totally unlocks is when you either:
    () let the battery fully drain and then recharge it or
    (2) you disconnect the battery lead and then press the On/Off switch for several minutes.
    I've looked everywhere for a solution/reason but nothing. You find plenty of people with the same problem but no answers. Surely someone knows how to fix the problem
    Is it a faulty battery (unlikely because mine charges up fine and holds it charge well)
    Is it the hard dri've (very unlikely since the player can start up correctly [given the above recovery procedure] and play tracks within the 5-0 minutes you have available)
    Is it the firmware (I doubt it, I can't see what the firmware's got to do with a delayed lock up, having worked fine up to that point)
    Is it the motherboard (maybe....., to my mind it points to a component failure that allows an electric charge to build up and not dissipate, the only way to discharge it is to short the battery pins [with, I hasten to add, the battery removed!])
    font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">
    Has anyone within the Creative community successfully solved this problem Has anyone received a decent answer from Creative
    I find it staggering that the guys at Creative have washed their hands of this problem. They, after all, are the most likely people to identify the problem - only they have a schematic of the motherboard that would allow them to investigate and locate the problem.
    For the record the firmware I'm using is v .0.0.
    Any guidance would be much appreciated,
    Victor

    Is there really no one with an answer to this problem or have I overlooked a previous post that explained the fault.
