I got an error when I ran makearc.bat. After it extracts the firmware files successfully, it says...

Make 'Fonts' directory
A subdirectory or file Fonts already exists.
Done (2/4)
Copy font files
ERROR!
Press any key to continue..

then I press a key and it exits. Any tips? =/

EDIT: Nevermind. I didn't have East Asian language fonts installed on my computer.

EDIT again: After step 12, is it supposed to prompt for the location of drivers? Because it did, and I didn't any. I downloaded the drivers posted here: link
and then it did the "Cannot change Sync settings at this time" thing. So um, where do I get the correct driver files?

EDIT again: k I found the driver file in C:/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/UMDF, and then it was asking for a bunch of other files which I found in just system32 folder (they all start with "Zune"). I hope this helps someone.

However, I got it to step 16 and now I'm stuck. After I close the error or even if I don't close it, it just says "Waiting for the device to update" with the increasing ......... and I let it sit for 30 minutes, nothing happened. I tried right clicking the Zune logo but nothing happens, no option for checking for updates or anything.
