Creative Zen Vision M 30GB wont turn on

You could try a firmware update/reinstall. If that doesn't work you may have a bad mainboard.

Firmware available here

Hi:

Look at the power switch at the top. You have probably turned it all the way to the left when you turned it on. It has a locked position to keep it the settings from being changed by acident when it is in your pocket

remove the battery, if you let the battery connecters hit the terminal a few times it works a a manual reset it works with almost anything

ur mobile software is courppted plz go on service center and recover the software.than you

I had a similar problem with my Creative Zen V+ (8Mb) when the battery went. What worked for me might work for you:

- Plug it in and leave it on charge for a couple of days.
- Reset
- Power on.

The key thing seemed to be to get power in before trying to get it up and running.


I have used this tactic the other way around when it froze - leave it to power down for a couple of days, then recharge, then reset and power up.

So far, the Zen V+ has proved extremely resilient!

if you don't have the kind of charger that goes directly into the dock connector, the zen vision needs a 5V charger ( it happens to be compatible with the PSP charger). if you just plug it into a usb cord it will not charger. you may also need the little white adapter piece the goes into the dock connector. i know only one place that sells older creative zen accessories and repairs creative zen visions . if you have all of that: i assume you pressed the little reset button on the bottom, it may just be frozen? if that doesn't work and you are sure you're charging it right, your logic board is dead.

If your Zen V is dead, wont respond to anything, try this, plug it in to the computer, hold the power switch in the on position, THEN trigger the reset button, worked like a charm for mine, I had thought it a lost cause."
