I edited your title. A title with "help" is not going to get you much help. Also, do not use your email address in a public forum as that will draw SPAM to your account. I edited that also.

Assuming it's not been damaed from a fall, water etc . . .

If you've tried a hard boot (pressing and holding home and sleep buttons for 10+ seconds) then I sspect it's the battery that's now failed.

I have a 1st gen touch with the same issue.

but my lock button is broken

A little grammar would be nice please.

Does your computer recognize the iPod?

yes it does.

Have you tried restoring it?

yeah and i got it thanks alot.

ok now i have taken it apart to try and fix the wifi and now it wont ever turn on. FML

Could be something simple have you checked the battery clonnection and the LCD connector forgot to connect them before and had this issue.

well one of the wires (the black one) was broken and my dad sodded it back on and yes the LCD connector is connected.
