Error code C00D1249 while updating Zune software

[Flicker]

Hi,

I had connected the zune to my vista pc and I tried update the firmware but nothing happened. I disconnect it and tried again, the same message "error code C00D1249" and still no solution and that the firmware update does not work here (it's a manufacturing problem and no way to correct it). If anyone has found the solution for the same problem ???

Click the Back button the Zune at the same time as you press both the left side of the Zune platform and the center of the Zune platform. Keep pressing these buttons until your Zune device restarts and Please wait message will appear on the screen. After connecting Zune to your PC, connect your Zune the computer that has the current Zune software, then update the device with the current Zune device software.

Error code C00D1249 is displayed if the Zune device entered self-recovery mode while it was trying to update. Additionally, you may receive the following message on the Zune device:

On your PC, open the Zune software and restore the Zune device firmware
To resolve this problem, connect the Zune device to the computer again, and then try to update the software on the Zune device.

I did this on my zune 30 and it went into "Clearing contents. Please wait."
I could hear the HDD indexing for a while, then it went silent ( if I put my ear to it I can hear the hum of the disc turning) and reamined in the Clearing contents screen. Any suggestions?
