Interestingly, a year ago, I had the same thing happen to a replacement iPod battery. It expanded up to almost an inch thick and popped the back off the iPod, but it did not explode. I was kind of scared of it.

I don't think that Acer made Macintoshes, but I guess I could be wrong. :rolleyes: Like I said, it has trouble booting into Windows. I'll see what happens if I uninstall iTunes and the iPod software.

Any new ideas, guys?

I mean, this was my first guess too. It is set to boot from the main HD, and it does so for the most part, it just seems to hang and loop on the XP loading screen.

I have an Acer 8200 Core Duo laptop that won't boot up unless my 5g iPod is plugged in. I'm running XP Pro SP2, and it hangs on the Windows loading screen. Any suggestions, short of reinstalling windows? I'll also point out that it is not set to boot from the iPod, and that it starts up...

April Fools Joke Yeah, that had me going for a second. I'm really looking forward to that game.

That's sweet dude. I know that I'm impressed. Great job!

I don't have it, not only because I'm worried about it borking my computer, but my schools firewall and virus protection is really quite good. I'm planning on getting it installed when I stop being so cheap, and get another hard drive to copy everything to just in case.

Just put Bright Eyes stickers all over it. That'll really make it emo. ;)
