HELP! PC would turn off when connecting zune to USB port

[MrJayRJingles]

hello guys, hope u can help me on this!

I was on the process of charging my zune on my PC since battery is low when i suddenly stumbled into this problem. The computer totally shuts off when i plugged zune USB on PC USB port. PC wont even turn on if zune is still connected. i tried connecting zune on other USB ports on my PC and still the same problem happens - Pc automatically turns off! i tried reseting zune and then connecting it again on my PC but still, it shuts my PC off. i dont think its a USB port problem coz i was able to connect other devices without any hassles..PLS help! Im from the Philippines and we dont have any service centers here for zune! THanks!

that sounds like more of a problem with your PC than a problem with your zune.

i tried connecting other device on my PC and it works all fine..cant see any prob, wont turn off PC! im using zune 80 by the way..does this have something to do with zune's battery? i'll try connecting zune on other PC..

Has anybody here experienced this kind of prob with zune 80? PLS help!

that has never happened to me. what kind of computer do you have?
could it be a problem with the power supply or battery to the computer?

At my house we have a tower with a broken front usb, And every time something was plugged in it would short out the computer, Have you tried using a different usb port?

I've tried connecting zune to a different PC. This time, the other PC didnt turn off but zune didnt charge. It kept on displaying this "low battery" icon everytime i press the play/pause button..I drained the battery completely by pressing the play/pause button several times until the low battery icon no longer appeared..then i connected zune to PC but im not seeing a "USB icon" on PC screen that would say zune is connected, nor am i seeing an icon displayed on my zune telling its charging..now what shall i do next? btw, thanks for your reply guys!
