hi guys, i'm totally new to this forum.

i have a zune 80gb and today its screen just went black. it has not been dropped or what so ever.

the backlight is on, the music plays fine but there is no picture/video on screen. Nothing shows on the screen. Even when you reset it doesnt show the zune logo.

i have tried resetting it like 30 times but nothing seems to take effect. i dont think there is anything wrong with the lcd right; because the backlight is on.

Even when the usb is plugged, it syncs fine and is detected perfectly by the computer; the just the screen that is driving me nuts. any suggestions.

Oh and the firmware and eveything is uptodate


JUST ADDED: AFTER A NUMEROUS AMOUNTS OF RESETS, I MANAGED TO GET THE ZUNE LOGO; THE ZUNE SHOWED UP ALL MENUS BUT WHEN I PLAYED THE MUSIC, EVERYTHING WENT HEYWIRE. THE TEXT WENT ALL BLURRY AND DIAGONAL, VERY HARD TO EXPLAIN; A GOOD EXAMPLE IS; WHEN THE VGA CABLE OF MONITOR IS NOT PLUGGED IN PROPERLY, AND THE IMAGES AND TEXT ON SCREEN APPEAR BLURRY, SLANTED AND UNCLEAR.

Talk to Microsoft or your place of purchase. Sounds like you just got a dud.

I would suggest replacing the LCD, but listening to your problem I'm not so sure it would do anything.

If you know anyone in the US who would send it on your behalf, then you could get it repaired. Thats what i did, only got it back a week ago but they couldnt fix it so it was replaced . if you havent opened it and know someone stateside then give it a pop
