At least you admit in the OP that you are a dumbass. :evil:

Please note that it asks you to change all that shit AFTER IT HAS INSTALLED.

If you don't bother to change the settings it ****s all your shit up.

There is nothing DURING THE INSTALL PROCESS that indicates it is going to change something unless you tell it not to.

**** THE ZUNE SOFTWARE.

The white letters under the first box that say

"Make the Zune software my primary music and video player"

didnt give you a hint that you might want to change something if you didn't want your defaults changed????

If you are a moron and click start playing, of course it will change your defaults... IT SAYS IT WILL.

BTW, the setup IS part of the install process. As of those screen shots, the system still asks me a few more questions and only THEN will the program start. The screenshots are from the launch screen.

blablabla...it's still a sneaky way of getting you to make the zune the default player

There should be an option BEFORE or DURING the install.

****ERS.

Sorry if it didn't install correctly for you. I know whenever I wipe out my computer and start over, Zune asks me if I want it to be default and I say no every time. IT has never been a problem.

It installed just fine. It's a piece of shit.

LMAO None of them are really worth a shit. Like you, I would prefer simple drag and drop through windows over proprietary software.

The irony is I can install a registry hack to make Windows see the Zune as a portable hard drive....and I can drag and drop....BUT IT WON'T TAKE THE FILES!!!

I had heard that they put an end to that hack. I could be wrong though.

Jesus Christ. The Zune software completely ****ing sucks. I created a new folder and copied about 27 gigs of music into it. I made that my "music collection" and pointed the Zune toward it. I "sync'd" it all up and thought it would be good to go. Now it just STOPS after 12.3 GB? WHAT THE **** IS THAT SHIT?

I'm gonna get a Zune. I ****ING HATE IPOD'S and that mess of software Itunes bullshit that makes PC's run like ****ing garbage, and troubleshooting the sum bitches is a pain in the ass.




**** Itunes

screw them both. I want to be able to use whatever program I want to load my devices.

OK, it seems to be going now. I guess I had to change the setting under my "sync groups" to "all." Needlessly complicated.

Jesus Christ man... then return the ****ing thing and get something else.

Nah, it's cool. I finally beat it into submission. It's a good device...despite it's completely CRAPPY software.
