If resetting it doesn't work, you should reinstall the software:

Is the software on the website or the cd that
Comes with it?
I added the link to the software above.
ERROR CODE 5——Yes, It can be a HD ribbon ZIF cable loose , BUT 99% of the time the Hard Drive has gone bad. No Fix other than replacement. I have many ZUNE 120Gb players & One at a time the hard drives went bad. No reasons—not dropped. I found the best repair is sending them to RAPID REPAIR. For $20.00 they will diagnose & give you an estimate. The smartest repair is having the Hard Drive (which is mechanical & will go out again) Replaced with a SSD digital drive. No moving parts, Solid state Memory, WITH a plus that they can replace the 120Gb drive with a 128Gb drive with extra memory. I’ve now have all 4 of mine done, Some with a new battery at Approx. $ 200. each or less. Just don’t throw that old ZUNE away ! Even broken, It’s worth big money on EBAY to guys & girls looking for parts that are NLA to fix their’s. Hope this advice works for all that live with ZUNE everyday like me. The best player ever on the market.

I fix these for a living, the number Five Error is usually the hard drive, sometimes the hard drive cable.

After replacing my zune LCD screen I got this message. I took the zune apart again and found that I did not properly replace the mother board ribbon. After properly replacing the ribbon, the zune worked fine. Hope this works.

I tried nearly everything to no avail.. just for the heck of it, I band my zune on my desk a few times and *poof* it started up just fine... yup, I pulled a Fonzie.
Can't make the problem worse!
