    My wife and I each have a 30GB Zune we were given for Christmas 07. They BOTH did this same thing late last night/early this morning. Funny timing? Sounds like a Y2K type glitch.

    I have the exact same thing going on, as well as a friend of mine with the same type of Zune. Both are totally locked up on the loading screen. I think Microsoft has a glitch in their 3.1 software that they updated a couple months ago.

    same problem today screen froze with zune logo and its not recognized by the computer.

  • Mccoyfish Dec 31, 2008

    Wow. My Zune did thesame thing.

    I think Zune is having an issue because all these problems are happenning on the same day.

Got it working again. Disassemble and disconnect the batery for about 10 seconds. This worked to resent mine and it's working again. Not sure if it's permanent, but working for now.

Let it on and completely drain the power, then try it. Make sure your lock key is not locked either. (at the top of Zune Device)

My Zune 30GB is frozen on the start up thing!

Disassemble and disconnect the battery for about 10 seconds. All Zune 30's apparently siezed this AM. MS is working on their solution, not sure when it will come out. The battery disconnect is at least a temp fix. Mine works fine after doing it.

My 30 gb zune is frozen

There's a fix:

Your zune will need a "hard reset."

To do this, use a small screwdriver to pop off the plastic shielding where the zune cable plugs into and remove the two screws on either side of the plug. Next pop the cover off and locate the battery plug at the top left corner of the zune, using your screw driver, pop the cable connection half way off, and do this to the other plug on the right side. Wait 3 seconds, then push down the right connector and then the left battery connecter. Your zune should start up immediately. Press the backing of the zune down (make sure headphone jack is aligned) and put the screws and cover back in place.

It's an easy process but if you're unsure don't attempt it.
