No. You need to make sure hold is disabled before pressing Menu + Select, and remember that you need to hold those buttons for a long time -- something up to 30 seconds or so is possible.

I held it for about two minutes and all that happened is the battery charger icon disappeared and reappeared.

bluebrother:
So it actually rebooted? If the Ipod shows the empty battery symbol even after reset the battery is really flat. And if you charged it for quite a while before it looks like your battery is broken.

I guess you already ensured that when charging the battery the usb port you used was working, or better used a wall charger?

I don't think it rebooted, the apple symbol didn't come up at all it went strait to the the battery charging symbol.  I did use my wife's usb cord as well to make sure it wasn't the cord.  If it sounds like a battery and not anything else I'll probably order a batter replacement.  Thank you for the help.

I ordered a replacement battery for $11.99.  Hopefully that will take care of the problem.
