Or you can try this: restart your iPod (centre+menu) before the apple logo highlights hold down the centre+rewind (left) buttons to go into diagnostics mode. Click on IO setting and Display, and click through the colours as fast as you can. Repeat scrolling through the colours until the red dot is gone.

Hope this helps. =J

Alright now try getting a video of static (colorful static works best) and play it on your iPod. It's recommendedby 88% of the worlds leading scientists (jk). No but seriously just play it for like 20 minutes. (20 chars) (lol)
