Ipod wont connect to windows itunes b/c wrong format

Jan 30, 2009 10:03AM PST

It tells me it needs to be "restored" and in doing so, it will erase all of my music and media! I got a new dell computer (studio 16) and my ipod is formatted to a macintosh computer. How do i 'restore' my ipod to windows format without losing all of my songs?

Ipod nano; 8gig; 3rd generation
