Do you have Rockbox on the iPod?
What happens when you try the reset procedure? What happens when you plug it in to USB?

Your response is not helpful. I asked you three questions. You answered 1 of them, but I'm not sure which one.

SOrry if i haven't answer you question probably.
1. No, i haven't install rockbox. I want to install rockbox that's when i find out that my ipod is not working
2. When i tired the reset procedure, i can hear click click sound - it sound like the ipod is trying to reset or might have rest and trying to startup but fail many times. Because i tried it many time and each time i hold longer then before. the last attempt i held it for nearly 2mins.
3. When i connect it to to my comp using the USB there is a click sound and follow with the sound of the disc spinning inside my ipod but nothing happen, no light, no charger icon, no apple icon nothing just a blank screen.

Two other thing,
i have charged my ipod for several days on and off (disconnecting and connecting ) between the usb and the wall charger. I am currently left my ipod charging from a wall charger for the past 4 hrs already and intend to left it there for 48 hrs according to suggestion from other post.
I think i should also let you know that when i connected it to my comp, my comp only recognized it as a removable device and not as and Ipod. When i try to get access to my ipod (removable device) i get a no respond and have to manual end task.

It sounds like your hard drive has failed. If you can get Windows to recognize it, you could try running a disk repair utility like chkdisk to see if you can get it working, but from what you describe, it definitely sounds like you have a hardware problem.

Here is a link to the instructions:

You'll need to run this from a command prompt. Go to the Start button, select "Run ..." and type "cmd" into the dialog box.
