Itunes Crashing - PC

[Konradx]

Anyone having lame crashing problems when you link your ipod to your PC? Everytime i put it in 90% of the time Itunes crashes..have to reload it..sometimes crashes twice..annoying as hell. I have the newest version 6.01 or whatever.

Are you on XP Service Pack 2? If not, it is highly recommened.

Well, back to your feature presentation...

I have had the same problem and have since discovered it to be a failing hard drive. My iPod would crash my Macs and my PC so the OS is irrelevant. If you want to try some fixes before taking it in to an Apple repairer, reset it, don't touch it for about 6 hours and then plug it into the PC, open up the iPod Software Updater and try to do a Restore. Hopefully it won't crash on you.

By the way, is it still playing music fine?

Probably one of these inside your computer.

the ipod plays fine...i do not have SP2 and ive avoided it because it was garbage..i guess by now its ok..i should probably download it. But i cant see why it would make a difference.
