So after replacing four hard drives, a screen, and two logic boards I'm finally done continually fixing my iPod. I looked at the system specs for a PC and it says 
  • PC with USB 2.0 port
  • Windows Vista or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
  • iTunes 9 or later
I have windows XP hope with SP2.... does that mean the iPod won't work with my computer? What the fuck?

SP3 is better than SP2 anyway so just go ahead and download it.

I didn't know SP3 was a free update, I thought it was something I had to purchase. I'm surprised my computer didn't install it as an automatic update.

And whoever said it'll probably work with SP2, it doesn't.
