I recommend doing the same if your Ipod blacked out. I was at gym and a possible corrupted file caused my classic to black out. I tried charging in the car and with wall charger but to no avail. I had to reset through toggling the hold switch, pressing Menu and select at the same time.
Note: This should be done at least 3 times if this is the case. Sometimes it wont work at first go, but at around the third reset it should. Do this method before taking it to the Apple store.

I am having almost the same issue with my ipod classic, 80GB. I use my ipod consently. In my work truck I have it plugged into the "old stlye"; with the cig lighter end and manually finding a station. This has always worked really well. Today while driving in the work truck, I reached for my cell phone and there was a loud noise that came over the speaker system in the truck, looked down and my ipod was off, total black screen. Tried using the reset/restore; didn't work. My ipod had been off any power all night before and most of the next day. I had brought it in with me to an appt I had and played yahtzee while I waited. And had just connected in the truck, the first song hadn't played all the way through. 😟 I love my ipod. I need my ipod. Any other suggestions other than the above? Does Apple still sell the 80GB ipod?
i have an 80gb classic ipod and its been blank for about a day now..ive tried to rest set it and it said " use itunes to restore " but by the time i got to the computer the screen is competly blank and will not turn on or charge at all 😟
For all the years I have owned and used my IPOD Classic, I've never had a problem with it. Tonight I got the "dead screen".
