I have a zen xtra 30 GB. Every time I attach my player to my Windows XP Computer it appears to connects as a usb mass storage device (in device manager). Not as a Windows Portable Device as shown in the creative.com knowledge base. When the player boots, it reports a firmware problem and goes into rescue mode. When I try to Reload OS from the rescue menu, the firmware program ZenXtra_PCFW_LA_1_20_08.exe does not see the device connected when the player instructs me to "Start the firmware update now" . Any help would be appreciated. UB

Howdy, That meets the description to what was the last gasp of my Nomad to a tee. I was trying to update the firmware to the v2.xx version, and the downloader hung, and now my computer refuses to even recognized the device as anything other than a 20GB USB disk drive. I tried following to solutions listed at: http://www.fixya.com/support/t114316-firmware_problem and http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/307045 but nothing helped. Time lost, >6 hours. An iPod is looking rather attractive about now. Any help would be dearly appreciated.
