Any help, greatly appreciated!
First of all: was the zip file uncorrupt (no error messages when opening it)?

If there were no errors, was the zip file of realistic size, say 40-100 MB for a full album?

If yes, do you find the unzipped files from your hard disk with Windows Explorer? If not, extract the zip file again with WinZip and see into which folder you are extracting the stuff. Then locate them with Windows Explorer and make sure they are mp3 files if that is what they are supposed to be. If yes, try double-clicking them from Windows Explorer.
