... That I initially set up on my Mac. However I got the Mac stolen and now I am using a windows based PC. Can I get the i-pod to work on the PC? I remember reading something about an I-pod only working on the computer it was set up on.
Any advise would be greatfuly received

You can get your iPod to work with Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Visit http://www.apple.com and get your iTunes software.
But this won't work for the older Windows ME or Windows 98 through iTunes. You would have to look for drivers, then use your iPod like an MP3 player.
Unlike the PC, Apple never develops software for it's older models. They simply assume that people would throw away their older computer to get the new software. THAT is a terrible waste of valuable resources. The least they could have done is to develop a "tiny iTunes" product for Windows 98/Windows ME.

You can download a programme from the internet call Podutility (i think thats what its called) Which will down load all your tracks from your ipod to your hard drive! Then install Itunes on your computer, then update itunes with you music you downloaded from your ipod. I think the software is free to try. Hope this helps.

obviously you need i tunes for this to work. i reccomend downloading itunes 7.0 very good. anyway. as long as you plug the ipod into an available usb port, and you have windows 2000 or later . your computer should recognise it automatically and away you go.

It will work, but you need to load the software onto the new machine.
