Most problems with iPod can be solved quickly 
by following the advice in this chapter.
If Your PC Does Not Complete the Start-up Process 
When iPod is Connected With the USB Cable
On some PCs, when iPod is connected with the USB cable, it’s possible that your 
PC will not complete the start-up process. If you encounter this, simply disconnect 
iPod from the PC. The start-up process will then complete. Once the PC start-up 
process is complete, reconnect iPod for normal operation.
If you are experiencing this issue on an HP or Compaq PC, please visit the 
HP Support Web site at http://www.hp.com/support and go to your product 
support page for the latest BIOS update for your PC. If you are experiencing this 
issue on any other brand PC, check your PC manufacturer’s Web site for any 
available PC software or BIOS updates.
