ok, so what do you suggest? im fully aware that "something is wrong with it" it would be nice to have some more info on this, anyways to format the original firmware?

Llorean:
What do you mean by "Format the original firmware?"

Also, by "wrong with it" I mean physically. As in, something you can't fix.

rasher:
I'm afraid I'm going to be horribly vague, since my knowledge of Ipods is very limited, but I'm quite sure that your problems don't neccesarily have to be hardware problems. It could be, but I believe that a combination of Windows hiccups and faults in the restore procedure can cause the problems you mention.

At any rate, this is totally unrelated to Rockbox. Try Apple's Ipod support before declaring your Ipod completely dead.

Edit: Are you by any chance using the restore program that came on the CD? If so, you may have luck by downloading the latest and using that. I seem to recall that as being the cause of the troubles that constitute my one experience with Ipods ever.

Llorean:
rasher: I could believe that unless he's being honest about the "Tried restoring it 10 times." At that point, you have to assume that something else is preventing the restore from succeeding.

Well, if it's a Windows/Itunes/Ipod restore/whatever problem, restoring it a million times would still give the same error, so I don't think hardware problems is the only option. Not by far.
