syncing erased all the music on my ipod

I just tried to sync my 40gb ipod to my computer (pc/windows xp pro), which i have done many times. this time, however, it erased all the content on my ipod. my music is still on my computer in my itunes music files, but my ipod is now completely blank. i have no idea what caused this. i just tried to sync it again, and still no music on the ipod. help!

Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7
