[SOLVED] How To Remove Software From Z80?

Saidas · 10-07-2008, 03:58 PM

I want to remove 2.5 and all files from my Z80 (wipe clean for 3.0 install) and all I've found so far is that it's doable but nothing as to actually how to do it.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance.

Thanks!!

Hold Back-Up to reset the Zune
Hold Back-Center-Left to wipe the HD and firmware clean.
Connect to the computer to load up the new firmware.

Good to see that you thought ahead. That's not something I see a lot on these help forums.

How does that actually work with the Z80 Squircle? I don't understand.

I don't have an actual 80 to test it on myself, but I know it works because there's a stick that describes the process and it's worked for many others who have 80's. Just trust me on this one.

Sorry...but this isn't solved. I can't find the sticky you referred to Locke. Doesn't your Zune have a Squircle too? I don't understand how to apply your instructions on a Squircle. Now that this thread says solved, now one else will contribute. What can I do now Locke? I've been messing with this since I bought it four months ago and I would really like to get it done. Thanks

I have a 30, no squircle, but I can guarantee you it works. I've already told dozens of 80 users to do this. http://www.zuneboards.com/forums/gen...binations.html That's the sticky.

Thanks Locke! That link is exactly what I was looking for. Now it makes sense!!

Btw...do you know how I can unsubscribe from a different thread? I don't see any way to do it and it has been driving me crazy for months now.

Umm...never subscribed to a thread, but I think if you go up into Thread Tools-right up above the first post on a page-Unsubscribe is an option.
