Welcome to Apple Discussions!

You need to reset the iPod by holding down Menu+Select for 6-10 seconds...
Resetting iPod

It may take several attempts. The above link also has "tips" if your iPod does not seem to be resetting.

If you have tried many times and the iPod will not reset, you will need to wait for the battery to die. It should be dead well within 24 hours. (The battery indicator may be frozen too, so it will not show how much is left)

it wont restart, but I will try to let it die. I have had a problem with it before and recharging it helped.

THANK YOU!!!
