You know you could just make a 'Recently Added' Playlist. Not that difficult, and works quite well. Also, I have a Brown 30 GB and around 3,500 songs I believe, a few episodes of South Park, five movies, and a couple video podcasts. Sync time is nothing really, and when I add a few albums, done in less than a minute or so.

I bet that will make a big difference on your weaker-GPU systems. 1.25 GB RAM might be kind of slim, especially if you're running other things at the same time. Remember it's firing up a big database to make it all work...

I've done that already. I don't run anything except the zune software because I know as soon as I do, it all lags.

My guess is that you have a slow/dying hard drive. The Zune software is tremendously hard drive intensive, and if your drive isn't up to the task it can get pretty sluggish.

Thanks for the suggestions but I've decided not to use it daily. What's the point when the Zune120 takes too long to sync play data, etc from the software. I'll give it another shot when it gets updated again.

Hmm. If that's the case, then it doesn't seem GPU-related. Seems more like a RAM or maybe a HD issue?

Hi All... I know it's less than graceful, but I've successfully used a tool called FileDate Changer to edit the file properties so my Zune files dont get messed up. I tend to rebuild my laptop often and this is the biggest pain but at least this utility helped.
