Help fix ipod 5g

I'm not really into this whole ipod modding scene but anyways this is what happened to my ipod. I was syncing it because I haven't in a year or so and wanted to add all of my new songs. In mid sync my ipod started making all of these funky noises like it was having problems. Then an error message shows up in the right hand corner saying "Windows - Delayed write failed", and the syncing stopped. It then says that my ipod is currupt and to restore it to factory defaults. I do that and after it is done I get the same error message "Windows - Delayed write failed". Itunes will no longer recognize my ipod and occasionally I can get my ipod to the main screen where I can select Music, Videos, etc.. Does anyone know how I can fix these problem or possibly just sync music to my ipod?

Re: Help fix ipod 5g

yes. And it failed mid restore. Now itunes will not recognize it. However I can still explore it with windows explorer.

Edit: I just did something and it might be fixed, Itunes recognized it and says its updating.
