Finally today after hours of working on this I managed to get my Creative Zen touch working with Vista. BOOOOO to Creative. It's like they don't expect their products to last long enough to require updates for them for more than a set number of years.

Anyway, what I did to fix this was:

1) Download & install "nomad explorer version 3.01.10" from Creative's website file name NMEX_PCApp_3_01_10.exe

2)Download a driver called: jb3mv2_pcwdrv_us_1_30_03 but don't install it yet

3)After downloading the file, Right click on it and clicked on "properties" then on the "compatability" tab I chose "run as WinXP SP2". "apply" "ok"

4)Right click on the file name again and "run as adminstrator". Then the computer prompted me to connect the player and then to reboot to complete the installation.

5) After the reboot, I found my player under "my computer" listed as "creative zen touch (my jukebox).

I am now able to "drag and drop" songs in and out of my player.

I first tried the following driver but it didn't work for me using the method above:

Creative ZEN and Jukebox Driver 2.01.00 jb3mv2_pcwdrv_us_1_30_03
JB3MV2_PCWDRV_US_2_01_00.EXE

Good luck for the next person who has this problem!

I can't believe it... I've had my creative zen for MONTHS and from day one, I haven't been able to use it because it wasn't recognized my windows Vista, tonight I stumbled apon this forum after having searched all this time and the command "net localgroup administrators /add local service" fixed it. After so long of having the PERFECT mp3 player and unable to get it to work and getting ABSOLUTELY NO HELP from creative I give you a very over due "Thank you"!!!

Thanks for sharing! cheers!

2008-04-30T22:18:00.000+08:00

i found out a way to upload songs to your creative without using the Media Explorer in Vista.

1. Plug in your Creative
2. Go to (My) Computer
3. open the one that says the name of your mp3 player (mine is bobby)
4. drag and drop songs into the folder of your choice.

VIOLA!!

ok for anyone for which this method didnt work and that tried everything else and is at wits end like I was
here is a great fix to get this thing working in vista

first upgrade your firmware to the 6.xx version

then

On an administrator account:

>>Right click "Computer"
>>Click "Manage"
>>Under the "System Tools" section, Double click "Local Users and Groups"
>>Click "Groups"
>>Right click "Administrators"
>>Click "Add to group..."
>>Click "Add"
>>Click "Advanced"
>>Click "Find Now"
>>Double click "Local Service"
>>Click "Ok"
>>"NT Authority\Local Service" should show up in the list now
>>Click "Ok"
>>Close Computer Management and reboot.

If that does not work, boot your computer up in safe mode with command promt. In the command prompt, type in one of these three variations of this command. (first one worked for me)

Net localgroup Administrators local service /add

net localhost Administrators /add Local Service

net localgroup Administrators /add Local Service

its flipping brilliant i say

try to update to the latest firmware for your zen, however, you need to connect it first to a working PC with Win XP
