Anyone here have a 2nd gen iPod Shuffle? I'm looking for some help..I looked at the support site but it's just giving me a headache :/

First off I just restored my PC last week. I tried reseting and the other 5 rs (that i could). Windows AND iTunes does NOT recognize my shuffle! I have it in my back usb port. "USB device NOT recognized" Anyone know what I can do to fix this? I am going on vacation the 24th-27 and I would LOVE to have my iPod working for the 6hr van ride
