I made this up, logically it will work but I've never put it to the test. I'm looking for a work around now. Don't hold me responsible, you've done this entirely at your own risk. I am English.
Sure,
getz da ipod rite, put it into da windoze PC (personal computah)
Okay,
1. Get the iPod which you gotta resurrect
2. Connect it to a windows computer which has iTunes
3. Make sure iTunes is closed
4. Hold down home and off (or whatever) READ 5 NOW
5 --- only hold off (or whatever) for 10 seconds [exactly] keep holding home
6. Windows will recognise the iPod in DFU mode
7. You should be able to go to My computer -> properties -> Device manager and see it
8. Or you can goto My Computer and see it as a disk.
READ 10 BEFORE 9
9. Right click it, format it. - *probably won't work, but might. 50-50 chance.
10. Or whilst in DFU mode don't format it, go to iTunes and restore it.
11. Go to your mac, add the iPod but don't register etc, use Disk utility to copy whichever iPod it is and try moving it over.
