Hello, guys!

I'm new on the forum so sorry if this ain't the corect place to post it :)

Soooooo, a few monts ago, i decided re-use my iPod Nano 1st gen to listen music while i'm running. so, to avoid the iTunes monogamy, i instaled Rockbox.

And that was amazing!!!! I finnaly can take musics from my friends and keep my musics on!

So a thing happened:

When i go to bed, i lefted my ipod plugged on my notebook, my notebook reiniciated and when i wake up in mornin that screen appeared :

" for disk mode
version: v4.0
IPOD version: 0x000c0006
SST55LD019K-45-C-MWE
Partition 1: 0x0B 7838831 sec'
Loading Rockbox...
lenght: A4294
checksum: 41388AB
Model name: nano
Loading rockbox, ipod:
Error!
Can't load rockbox,ipod:
read failed (image)
Insert USB cable, or hold MENU+SELECT to reboot then SELECT + PLAY"

Well, windows dont recognizes my ipod in disk mode, or in normal mode. Not even my stereo recognizes it!!!!

I really want to keep using it, don't know why, but there's a sentimental thing.

There's some way to fix it? or i will have to say bye to my 2005 partner? :(

Ps.: Unfortunately i can't afford a new iPod cuz in Brazil the prices are high as ***, so don't make up.

Ps².: Sorry 4 my bad english

saratoga:
The apple disk mode will always work unless the device is physically broken.  Try that

Percyneto:
i already tried, but in windows appear the following message when i plug the iPod into PC:

"ok to disconnect" on iPod Screen.

"USB device not recognized" on Windows.

And, on Windows Device Manager, appears "unknown device"

:(

saratoga:
Try a different PC, try again, double check Apple's instructions that you have not made a mistake.

If you're certain you've done everything right, and the emergency disk mode still won't work, then the player is probably broken. 

Percyneto:
Checked, re-checked, in 3 different computers, and nothing :(


iPod only problem is the battery, which puffed and no longer maintains load.

Well, thinking a little, maybe the iPod started giving problems after the battery passed out...

Can be that?? May the battery is blocking the Rockbox? Because, beyond battery, all the ipod is operating normally.
