Ok, so, for some reason, Windows Media Player, and subsequently the Zune software/media player, has been [censored] with my albums. Even though they albums are intact as I ripped them in their respective folders in the Music folder, the player's library has decided to be screwy. It has the wrong album art, has [censored] around with the order of songs, or, in some cases, taken two separate albums and put them together, for no reason. It's affecting the way my Zune organizes my music, so I need to find a way of nuking the library and having it reorganize based exactly on how my music organized. Anyone have any tips or suggestions?

Huh... I guess I haven't had that problem, but if you run Vista I would just use Windows Media Center. It's a bit more user friendly than WMP, even if the menus are a bit wonky. Short of reinstalling your copy of WMP, I'm not sure how to fix that...

There's a library file somewhere, because I've done it before. I just can't remember where. =/ I'll search for it later today. I've got paintball with my AFROTC Det soon.

Perhaps Microsoft can offer some advice? If you follow the instructions to "create a new Library," I think that might resolve your issues.
