So would I. And since it hasn't, and since your iPod resets itself, I think you got some serious problems. You could attempt to erase the ipod using Disk Utility. I would choose the "Write zeros" option for erasing, even though it takes lots longer, and then perform another restore. Then re-sync it and see what happens. If it still misbehaves, then I would bring the iPod into an authorized repair center or start saving for a new one. ------------ Michael Prete More will be revealed.
