Ipod Touch 4G not recognized on Windows

Hello to everyone!

I have an ipod touch 4G 32GB, suddenly my windows cannot recognised my ipod. The problem started when my ipod battery is drained. I tried to charge it using my car charger but didnt charge as it should like before. So when i reach home I plugit it to my wall charger and it wakes my ipod, but i noticed one thing while it was plug, the battery charging indicator is not showing on the battery icon as it was before. I keep it plug but the charging time is very long and it did not fully charge the battery. I tried to drained the battery again and plugit in to the wall charger but still the same the charging time take very long and it wont fully charge the fully. I drained again the battery and tried to charge the ipod on shut off mode, i keep it like that for atleast 8hrs and the battery is fully charged as it show on the battery indicator.

When i tried connect my ipod on my computer, windows shows that USB Device Not Recognized. I followed the instruction on how to update the driver on my windows but still my computer cannot install the Driver. I'm recieving this message when i tried to update the driver.

"Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device"

Hi, thank you for the reply. I tried this solutuion but still didn't fix the problem. I tried installing a new itunes on other laptop but didn't work. When i tried to connect on recorvery mode, the ipod screen show only the cable with arrow to the itunes and stock from there, and on the computer its pop up the message that it didnt reconized my usb device.

I tried also rest all the setting on my ipod but didnt solve the problem.

Is there any way i can restore my ipod on the factory default without connecting to the itunes?


Thanks and regards


Gerald
