Ignore the answer above mine, he's talking absolute bollocks.
You're plugging the ipod into a hub, aren't you? One of those little boxes that give you lots of USB ports and plugs into one USB port on your PC.
They're great for connecting multiple devices to your PC, but there's a limit to what they can take. All the devices you have plugged in to this hub have to share all the power that comes from that one port on your PC.
Sadly, iPods are very power hungry. It has an 80Gb had drive in, and that takes quite a bit of power to spin. Especially if you have other hard drives or printers connected to this USB hub, you're going to exceed this limit.
Your solution is to plug your iPod directly into your PC rather than into your hub. Or, if your hub can take external power (some come with a power adaptor that plugs into a power socket), then make sure it's connected.

keyboards do not take in that a lot power, no keyboard depending hub has sufficient power to power an ipod, those ports on the decrease back of your keyboard are basically for mice and different enter instruments that take in little or no power, they couldn't be used to power an ipod or a flash force or some thing that doesn't have its personal power source.

Reinstalling the driver for your ipod is the best solution you can do to this kind of problem...... go to my computer then devive manager tab... choose and uninstall the driver first... then reinstall .... that should fix it....
