Put your iPod into disk mode. If you do not know how, then have a look through this guide..

Putting your iPod into disk mode forces it to mount on your computer.
Once you have done that, you need to restore your iPod back to "factory state" using the iPod Updater software. Again, if you are not sure how to do this, have a look through the following link..

After this, your iPod should be active as normal, though if it isn't, don't hesitate to post back ;-]

Simply resetting the iPod will take it out of disk mode, but it will leave you back @ square one..

If the data is in iTunes, it will be simple & straightforward to re-sync the content to your iPod. Your alternatives are pretty limited on this one..
