I can't seem to install Creative's own applications (the tool that 'fixes' crashed players - they crash like every 3rd time I turn them on), and I can't install the drivers and importing apps in Vista, so that I can convert videos for my Zen V Plus, I could just copy files into it.

Mmm..what applications?

I can run:
Creative video convertor
Creative Zencast Organizer
ZEN Vision M Series Media Explorer
Sync Manager

I am also running the American versions even if I am in Australia

I tell you what. Lets go attack the real problem - LINKSYS!!!! They dont even have a x64 driver for Vista for ANY of their products.
Thats the real problematic company right now, not Creative. Atleast I get a new driver from Creative every couple weeks

many users have pledged to boycott all creative products and some have even smashed up their Creative hardwares in response to the incident.[4] Infact this very page has been defaced many times, this is a troubling matter for the great wiki admins.

Start thinking outside the box.

I never have problems myself, but I'm not liking their business practices at all. Think about it, they pretty much have monopoly in the sound card market. Their cards are getting more and more expensive, and support is getting worse and worse. We could've keep this quiet with the modded drivers, but they had to stand out to clarify their position in this monopoly.

Sooner or later you'll be affected when they exacerbate these practices.
