Zen sleek frozen after trying to delete songs

I have only had my zen sleek 20gb mp3 for a month and I was deleting some songs off and it froze on deleting... I let the battery run out because the power button wouldn't turn it off...when recharged it would only go to Zen sleek screen and then freeze there. I can't get into the music or anything. None of the buttons are working. I tried resetting it w/ the reset hole but it still won't go past the zen sleek screen. Someone out there...please help!!!! Thanks!! Audie

Why does technology make you work for what you already paid good money for? Have you tried going into Recovery Mode? You do this by holding down the Play/Pause button while triggering the Reset button. Once there, you have four options. Try selecting Disk Cleanup and then Reboot. You might need to re-Sync a few things but it's worth a shot. Good luck.

My Creative Zen has Frozen on a particular song.........
while it is off slide down the power thing while holding play and resseting it with a safety pin, paperclip, staple, etc., this should bring you to the zen format screen thing, select "clean up" this should fix the problem and still save all of your files, if this doesn't work try the other options from the zen format screen.

Help frozen up zen vplus 4gb
I had the same repeating problem with my Zen V Plus 2GB. There is a tiny hole on the left side of the player, underneath the on/off switch. Stick a paperclip in there and press gently to reset your player. I lived for 6 months letting the battery wear itself out before I discovered this reset hole. I finally found the offending piece of music and deleted it from the player. I haven't had any problems with my Zen freezing since deleting that song. Pay attention to whether it always freezes on the same media, that might be the source of your problem.

Hope this helps!

It Freezes Someone Help Me Please
This is important; because, if you cannot get into Recovery Mode, then this is a sure sign of a bricked player. You could try a forced hard reset by going in and disconnecting the battery, but chances are, the player is bricked.

zen creative sleek lights up and powers on but does not display Unit lights up and powers on and appears to sync and shows to be loaded with music when connected to the computer. The screen is blue and the lights behind the keypad are also blue and lit up. Since there is nothing except the light that shows on the screen, it is impossible to know how to control the unit without being able to see the screen. How do I fix this?

Can't use old Zen Sleek as can't download software I have a Creative Zen Sleek MP3 Player that a friend gave me without any software and I acquired the software for the computer driver on Ebay but it now says it is not supported by my Windows Vista laptop. I want to take a hammer to the bloody thing and now the player its self won't turn on and says it's 'rebuilding library'. I feel like it is. Really. With the crack of its arse showing.
