hold power and home button at same time down until your phones screen goes off and then an apple logo appears, then you should release both buttons.
plug into pc/mac, hold power button and home button, once it restarts, release power button(lock button) BUT CONTINUE HOLDING HOME BUTTON
after a few seconds (sometimes even up to a minute or two) your phone will go into disk mode and itunes will recognize it.
then restore.
Wrong directions to get you into DFU mode here. Click on the link in my sig for directions and a video. You need to hold down the home and power button until right after the screen goes black (around 8-10 secs.) and then continue holding the home button. You may need to try a few times to get it right.
Yes, of course, if you get that far. I'd worry about getting into the restore first.

I got it into the restore on my work computer already just to see but my backup is on my mac book at home.
Well that's good. If you find you can't get to the same stage at home (it happens), copy the backup folder and restore at work.
