Here is what worked for me on the new software as am getting the Windows phone.
EXTRACT the small Zune package using WinZip or some other program. Then just click the ZuneSetup.exe file.

FYI: The error i was getting was that it said i needed Service Pack 3 (for XP)... i am using Vista SP2 32-bit.

dotnetfx.exe

dw20shared.msi

msxml6_x86_sp1.msi

any of the other updates ending in enu.exe
E.x.:windowsxp-kb915865-v11-x86-enu.exe

you don't really have to really have to restart to then install the soft ware by just running zune-x86.msi

personally I've installed it this way on an un updated xp with out any problems.

Not seeing "msxml6_x86_sp1.msi" file in the extracted folder. Which sucks cause till that point it looked like it was gunna work. I've been to the "Ask Microsoft" support page, and they haven't given me any info at all. Won't be going back there for questions again.

I ended up just deleting my zune files then cleaning them out with ccleaner, but now I can't reinstall. Running Win7 ultimate. Why can't Microsoft just fix their ****...

I tried all these and could not get the installer from getting stuck in the update window. Then I searched and manually deleted all instances of "Zune" in the registry, rebooted and was able to install the Zune software in just under 5 minutes!

Hi, i downloaded Zune 4.0, extracted it using WinRar and ran the zune-x86.msi file. It is throwing error as "FirewallCA: Operation 'Preserve Wireless FWRule Config' has finished with result 0x8007005". Any help will be greatly appreciated.
-Thanks.

i think this may be a fight between your firewall and zunes wireless sync service. try disabling your firewall and try it again.
