Hello,

Thanks
Jim

Thank you so much, I just bought a zune 120 gig without knowing xp 64 didn’t support it…. I spent all afternoon screaming and cursing at microsoft until I found this page. Excellent work.

Only one issue. The marketplace won’t connect or work at all. That said, I can at least use my zune with XP x64

I’m not joking when I say that you should make sure this page NEVER leaves the internet.

Of the 15 different fixes I tried this is the only one that worked for XP 64 bit Professional.

I may end up making a screenshot of your stuff and save the files on disc for later in case you ever leave because this was vital for me.

I appreciate this to no end.

@Jason – You can repost but I got the instructions from this site “http://digitaldj.net/zune2onxpx64/” so you should credit that blog with coming up with the original instructions for this.

You don’t need WinRAR to extract it. Open the installer file, yes it will give you the OS not supported error. DO NOT CLICK CLOSE JUST YET! With the error message still up open your C: drive to where you can see Program Files, Windows, etc… and you should see a new folder with a gibberish name (something like c3453dsfwertw435345 or some random string of crap. You will find the installer files in here. You might want to copy the contents of it as it will be erased immediately when you close the error message. I think there is just one file you won’t be able to copy.
