Excert from a personal message:
What you need to do is turn the iPod on (while connected to a back port of a PC [the port has to be a powered port]). When you see the Apple logo press and hold the Play/Pause and Select buttons on the click wheel. This will put the iPod into Disk Mode. Let it charge as needed. The unknown device is generally because the USB port no longer recognizes the powered device. However if this happens on multiple computers (where you receive "Unknown Device") then the USB controller of the iPod is screwed and will need to go in for service.
Once the iPod was fully charged and reset the device functioned correctly on the computer.
