Interesting, did you install an update to itunes or any of that sought?

Google is your friend, there has to be answers out there.

Check all of your USB ports, try with USB 2.0 on and off (try USB 1.1) / BIOS changes
The Ipod usually depends on a high-speed USB 2.0 connection.

Try more than one USB port on your system and see where you can get.
