I followed all the steps in the OP perfectly, and despite C# not showing "Deploy to Zune", when I deploy, it gets on my Zune 8 perfectly. Except when I hit Play, it resets my Zune.
I *am* running the 3.1 firmware, which is probably why it does that. But maybe not. Any ideas?
Do all games reset your zune? Did you get XNA 3.0 Final, or Beta?
I have firmware 3.1 too; it's not that
I downloaded whatever is currently in the OP. Which is 3.0 Final, I believe, since it doesn't say Beta anywhere. I tried a couple games from the 3.0 Firmware Game Pack thread. HeliGame and BeatWave to be precise. Both reset the Zune when I hit play. In the documentation file it says the version number of XNA is 3.0.11010.0
Could it be those specific games? should I try more games?
The strange thing is that even though I don't see the right option under Build in C#, even when I just hit Deploy it deploys to my zune just fine. Then it resets. It works fine, I go click Play on the game, and it never opens the game, just resets.

Reason: clarity
SAVE THE GAME, THEN OPEN IT AND EXTRACT THE FILES WITH 7-ZIP
GO BACK TO C#
Click Open, and then click on where you saved the extracted files. BE SURE TO CLICK ON THE .SLN FILE. This is the solution file, which compiles all of the different programs.
Click on Build --> deploy (name of game) (shown below)
MAKE SURE THE ZUNE SOFTWARE IS NOT OPEN! If it is, it won't work.

I don't think its the games themselves that I tried that are making my Zune restart when I hit play, it must be something else. I can't figure out what though, if it works for you with the same firmware, I have no idea. When you did it did you do it a little differently than what's currently in the OP? Or I guess it COULD be the individual games. Can you suggest one to try that you know works on your zune?
I think it could have something to do with the fact that the Zune never says "deployment done" or anything like that, it just finishes and sits at "waiting for computer" forever until I hit the zunepad to exit. I waited 5 minutes on that screen before hitting Exit. Ideas?
(replace "-dot-" with "."
replace "-colon-" with ":")
I installed this and it will install a couple megabytes and then just freeze. I waited for like 30 mins but it's still in the same place. Whenever I restart it, 0-2 mb will install and then it'll freeze again. The weird thing is that when I restart it will install a bit farther than the time before. Is something wrong or must I just wait? If this doesn't make sense I'll try to re-word it.
EDIT: LOL, sorry i'm such a dumbass. all i had to do was restart S(
