How do I restore ipod classic without losing music?

I just discovered today (9/14/2015) that the latest iTunes version requires me to update my six-years old iPod Classic 160KB!

I'm ticked off because I applied the reset (factory) settings on my iPod Classic 160 kb and NOW I CANNOT GET BACK TO LISTENING (AND ENJOYING) MY MUSIC (well over 6000 songs)!

Talk about depression.... Oh my god! HELP!

iPod classic, Windows XP, 160 KB (2009 model)

P.S. I've tried everything ... removing iTunes 2.0.4. and reinstalling it. Removing Apple Mobile Device Support and Bonjour (via Microsoft XP commands) and reinstalling them from Apple's website. {I really do not want to reformat or restore factory settings because doing this will erase all of my music.} HELP! Please ... I hope to hear of a quick remedy without all the bloodshed. Thank you!!!
