Computer Question- itunes mostly! will pick best answer!!!?

its kinda long but if anyone can help me i will give best answer to the first person to help fix the problem. step by step, if possible, please.

btw i have a pc

ok so i have a 30 gb video ipod, and yester day i plugged it into my itunes and it erased all my videos saying that my ipod couldn't play videos, which is bull. (this is also the first time that it happened). (this is the major problelm, just saying, like if i can't fix anything else but this for right now thats ok. all problems to come are a result of this.) ok so i figured that since i haven't updated itunes in a while (like i still have version 7 something) that i would update. when i tried to do that, i got error message saying invalid drive f:/ when i searched for this problem online to fix it, everyone said search registry for f:/ which i did and found nothing. now im trying regcure but i googled that just to be sure it wouldn't crash my pc or anything and found many complaints. so does anybody know whats going on?? and does anyone know if regcure is good or not?? i know that was kind of long so thx in advance

Update:

i would delete the program and reinstall it, but im afraid i wont be allowed because of the invalid drive F:/ thing

    Alright, well you may have a driver issue going on which is no big deal. Don't bother with the regcure thing, I'm almost positive the problem doesn't require any registry fixing/editing. Simply uninstall itunes, delete the folder in your program files, download the newest version, and install. It should reinstall the driver for you and be able to recognize your iPod, and hopefully you won't run into that video problem again. (I would imagine you ran into that because of the old version of iTunes, using the newest version should correct it).

    You also may want to look into using a program besides iTunes for your iPod, I always liked Winamp. Just a suggestion, I know most iPod owners love iTunes.

    EDIT: Make sure not to delete your music library or your videos!
