Question Charing my Zune 30GB?

Hey guys,

I don't have wall charger and have always been charging my zune through my computer. However im going on hols for a week to stay at a friends place.

Can i charge my zune on his computer through USB without installing the zune software or would i be doing damage to my zune mp3 player?

Thanks
Jake

It may charge slowly, though. When you first connect it, watch the PC screen. Windows may or may not recognize it. If it does it will install the zune USB driver, and will be able to charge at full power. If not, it will only trickle charge it, to avoid damage to an 'unknown' device. Either way is just fine, other than the extra time a trickle charge requires...

Might be time to invest in a wall charger?
