    okay dude.... try to think about whats wrong with abyss .conf. ( as my friend biff says : think mcfly , think lololol just kidding )

    if <root>

    C:\Abyss Web Server 

    </root> 

    then you must rename C:\abyss folder to C:\Abyss Web Server.

    thats why you cant enable server. try again and tell me what happens

    Francisco,

    I got the server running.  I used your host file and I fixed the abyss conf.  It appears abyss server is running correctly.  When I fire up the zune software and plug in the zune I still get this error:

    Also, on my zune it says "On your PC, open the Zune software and restore the zune device firmware."

    Do I need to be running a certain version of zune?  Should I uninstall and install different version?

    are ya doing this with your pc conected to internet ? 1 think i forgot to mention its... welll obviously you are emulating a server... so ya need to conect to rj45 ethernet cable to update. you must been doing something wrong cause that error its related to abyss

    what are we going to do? erase C: abyss folder . then cut and paste my abyss web server folder to C:  (as i uploaded in rar ) use ctrl-alt-supr for task manager and close abyssws exe. (end task) before deleting your abyss folder

    lolololol .... ummmm it worked?

    BTW.... its for All zune devices. all last updates to all zune devices.  each model (hd, 30 gigs sd, 120 gigs sd etc... has its own digital signature for unbricking . thats why my zune hd its not shown as zune sd 30 gigs by software ... making an example
