Your iPod Hardisk is in poor health, dying in the near future, but currently in a state of Comatose.
- Recharge your iPod for at least 2 hours then
- Reset the iPod - Press Menu and Center buttons for about 10secs till the Apple logo comes ON.
- Do a disk diagnostic, as posted earlier by tt2

It wont fix your problem, but it may assure you that you are burying a dead iPod, unless you replace the hardisk.
Have a nice day!
