2nd Gen iPod Nano will not turn on

I plugged it into my computer to try and charge it but the computer isn't even picking up the USB cable! I don't think it is my battery because the iPOD was working fine and was fully charged. I know it isn't my computer because everything else is working fine! But my ipod won't turn on at all! HELP!!!

2nd Generation iPOD nanp, Windows XP
