some of these guys achieve something like played or not played these games,and for me i cannot even load my firmware to

One question : What colour is your ipod? Black or White ? If it's neither - you don't own a 5.5G, or a 5G - but a "Classic" or 6G.
One statement : Do NOT use our forums to talk about obtaining pirated or cracked software.

Got it sorry for the problems :-)
You can distinguish the iPod classic from the iPod (5th generation) by the last three digits of the serial number. The iPod classic serial number's last three digits will be one of the following: Y5N, YMU, YMV, and YMX.
