Um, so I've searched for the last 20 minutes and can't find anything at all online about this....
So, I used to have this 3rd gen 10gb iPod. I synced it with my computer everyday. When the Nano's came out, I bought one and threw my 10gig in the drawer and never used it again. But recently my Nano was stolen when my friends house was broken into. So last week I reinstalled my firewire pci card, because the 3rd gen can't use USB. So, I plug in my iPod (same computer that I used before, and with the Nano). I never have used iTunes, so I loaded up Winamp and connect the pod. It took several attempts for the computer to even realize that there was an external device attatched, then it would disconnect, I then realized that the iPod needed at least a little bit of a charge to first connect. So, finally I got Winamp to recognize it. There was about 2gigs left of space on it, so I just added a couple cd's that I wanted for the road trip, cuz I was in a hurry to leave. It went fine, I left all the old music on it. A couple days later, I went to clear the entire ipod and put a ton of new songs on it. So I cleared the list and when I tried adding more songs, it got stuck after the first couple hundred and wouldn't move. Then randomly, my computer restarts. I disconnected the ipod before it went into the DSKCHK or whatever, and the "Do not disconnect" sybol wouldn't go away, so I reset it by holding play and menu at the same time... Comes back on, I chose the language and then there was nothing on the ipod, even after waiting 10 mins for it to transfer.
So I reconnected it, opened up Winamp and a couple seconds later, my comp reboots.... Now, I can't get it to connect without rebooting my comp...
Also: I would of tried using iTunes, but the iTunes 7 installer is something like 34mb??? And I'm getting a crappy download rate from Apple.
