...Thanks for the ideas, Steve

My firewire card is a generic, but it does show up on the desktop, although
I don't know if it needs it's own driver.

When the iPod is plugged in, it turns on but then after a few seconds the
screen says "ok to disconnect", with a big checkmark.  The iPod does not
show up on the desktop, or in iTunes.  Rebooting the iPod doesn't help.

>From all I have gathered, this iPod (I got it used) and it's software
(version 1.3), are compatable with 9.2.2, and I do have the iPod 1.3
updater.
