iPods do have a built in diagnostic program that can help identify any problems that it may be experiencing. The means to get to it differ between models, but generally follow the same rule: Perform a soft reset by holding the center and menu button, then when the iPod resets and the apple logo appears, hold down the center button and the back (leftside) button to get into the diagnostics menu. Run the hard drive tests and see what the results are, as this does sound like a problem with the drive. The rest of the tests can check the battery, logic board, and all other features of they ever start to act up.
By the by, what model of iPod do you have? How ya doing, buddy?  |

Hn, did it say specifically PASS or FAIL? The test should tell you either SDRAM ok or SDRAM fail.
Right now the test you ought to run is for the HDD since it seems to be the source of your problems. In the main menu, go to IO and select the HDscans and HDRW tests. Each will take a couple of minutes and should tell you rather plainly if it passed or failed. If it does fail, it means you might need a new hard drive. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
