Itunes unknown error (-4)

Sorry if this has posted before. Hope someone can help/guide as to what to do.

I've been having problems with safari crashing on me ever 5-10 mins, even after clearing history, cache, blah blah blah. So I decided to restore my touch. The restore went fine... except for one thing, I had purchased the January ipod touch software upgrade, so everytime to go to sync my touch, itunes shows installing software upgrade then a windows pops up with the following message:

"Itunes could not install the Ipod Touch Software upgrade on the ipod because an unknown error occured (-4)"

Im running Vista, Itunes 7.7. Itunes shows my touch as having the 1.14 software but i dont have any of the upgrade on the touch itself. Ive tried to manually select the 1.14 software (Shift+update, C:\Users\Adminstrator\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates).. Still nothing happens..

Any help?

Funny thing now is Itunes is linking me to the 2.0 firmware page to buy the update.. I just want my 1.14..

Ipod Touch 8GB, Windows Vista
