Question New Zune 8GB Problem.

I think it won't charge or something. When I plug it into the computer via USB, the battery charge symbol comes up, followed by "zune" and a loading bar, that loads, and then it disappears. I've let it sit and charge for a couple hours now, and it still does it.

Without the USB cable hooked up, there is no response from the thing what so ever. I've installed the Zune software, it doesn't read that a zune is connected, and I've tried restarting my computer.

Suggestions?

did you ever get it to come up? It can take a while if the battery is very low, especially if your USB port is a hub port (and therefore can't supply enough current to charge it more than slowly.) Front USB ports on desktops are hubs, and most USB ports on laptops are also.

Do you have a wall charger? Might be good to plug it up to one of them and leave it there for a long while.
