iPod Touch stuck in Recovery Mode

Okay, I'm getting pretty freaking PO'd with this problem.


I'm running Win XP-64bit, latest iTunes (hacked obviously, because Apple don't support XP 64-bit) and I have a 4G iPod Touch. The second I now own.

Originally, my previous iPod had an issue with the camera, I thought the new software update might fix it, so I (stupidly, it seems) attempted to download it. When I did, it failed and the computer and iTunes completely failed to recognise the iPod. I got a replacement, and that would not sync to iTunes for almost a week. It identified the iPod as a camera, but everytime I tried to select the driver from C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl64_EA20A8EBD0BD2DD06333A241F582D3C54BB4E547 /usbaapl.sys, it would just call it 'Apple Mobile Device USB Driver' and iTunes would still ignore it. I had to reinstall my hacked iTunes TWICE to get it to work. Then, when it finally did find the iPod to sync, it automatically started the iPod software update WHICH FAILED AGAIN and now the iPod is back in Recovery Mode and I can't get iTunes to find it to recover it.

I've been through almost every page of the Apple "Support" webpages with no appreciable benefit.


Do I need to return yet another iPod for yet another replacement or what?
