HELP! Iphone in Emergency mode w/ Passcode enabled

Hi-

I had a strange run of luck. I have a first generation Iphone.. upgraded to 2.1 this morning but before I had the chance to restart Itunes my Windows hard drive crashed. I had to replace the drive and reinstall Windows Vista/Itunes.

My Iphone is stuck in "Emergency" Mode and when I connect it to the PC with the new Itunes install I get the following message:

"iTunes could not connect to the Iphone "Jim's iPhone" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".

The problem is, since it's in Emergency mode I can't enter a passscode. I basically have a dead iPhone at the moment.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Jim

PC, Windows Vista
