Is it possible to try it on a Mac to see if that version of the iPod Software Updater will work?

What exactly did you do with the file manager software?

Sounds like you bricked your iPod by using unsupported/hacked firmware. Probably should have been safer and now you've got a dead iPod.

Sorry buddy.
