Weird problem

[Stagier]

well for awhile now it seems my ipod doesnt want to connect with my computer. It started about a week ago but i didn't really care since I thought it was my ipod being low on battery and it didn't want to connect. So today i tried to sync some songs and ive tried mutiple programs such as itunes,songbird and ifunbox. I even tried to put it in dfu mode and try to get it back to a normal firmware and that didn't work. However it does detect when in dfu but as soon as it tries it loses the ipod. My firmware is 4.1 and i haven't changed anything on it recently.
