I have an 8gb creative zen.

Windows always installed the drivers automatically as soon as I plugged it into a pc.

I tried it again on windows 7, but windows just says it's not compatible.

I downloaded the windows 7 software for the zen from the creative site but it still says it's not compatible with my OS.

I'm using windows 7 ultimate build 7100

    Hi saind,

    a. What’s the model of the Creative Zen player you’re using?

    Updating the firmware has helped users in fixing the issue. I’d recommend you to access the link below, select the appropriate MP3 player you have and in the subsequent page, download and install the latest firmware:

    Creative Worldwide Support > MP3 Players

    Hope this helps.

    I got Creative Zen 8Gt today. But I can not connect my Zen to Windows 7. My Creative Zen model is just Creative Zen. Thanks for the help.
