My iPod Touch won't turn on, help?

IPOD Touch 2nd generation wont turn on! PLEASE HELP!?

• I'm trying to fix my friends IPOD TOUCH 8g 2nd generation. She tried to jailbreak it, i think with something called redsnow and maybe something else, and now it won't turn on. I have no idea what version or firmwear it was running. When I try to turn it on, the apple logo appears for a few seconds and then it goes back to a blank screen. The ipod is charged. I tried plugging it in to my computer (windows 7) but it is not recognized in my computer, and it is not recognized in my itunes. I've tried putting it in DFU mode but it doesnt do anything. My friend doesn't know anything about ipods/iphones. I know a bit more than her so here I am trying to fix it for her. so please let me know if there's any other info I need to provide. thanks

• Answer:

  I have your solution. The only way you will get the iPod to work is by restoring it to factory settings or you can also go to redsnow and reboot it. That will also turn it back on. When you jailbreak your iPod you can't let it turn off because it will always do this. It is a tethered jailbreak.
