My iPod got wet

Ok, so Today, I put my ipod on my window sill cause it was dry(so I thought), and then it started raining outside. A few hours later, I reached for my ipod and it was drenched! I turned it on and it had the unhappy face on it, and then the do not dissconnect,then the dead battery sign. After that I shook it and most of the water came out. Then the apple screen shows up and it has been there for a few hours now. I press buttons and nothing happens. I press them again, but this time I put the ipod to my ear and I can hear the hard drive operating still. I dont want to waste more money to get a new one. So what should I do? please help me.....I love me ipod........... Oh just for your info, it is a video ipod....

Try restoring the iPod...
Restore the iPod

Also, is it showing that the songs are playing and no sound is coming out? Try different headphones.

I tried to reset it and it still did not work.......By the way, did I mention that I had a 5th Generation iPod? You said Restore, and It said I might require a AC Adapter( which did not come with ipod video), I am not sure if I wanna do it. Will I need an AC adapter. If not, Are you sure?.....Please HElp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!User uploaded file

Try the restore. If you have a 5G iPod with video, you will not need an AC Adapter to complete the restore process.
