USB malfunction for iTouch

Hello,

I have a 3 day old iTouch. I use Vista and have iTunes 9. The iTouch has been connecting just fine to the computer and I loaded music on it just 12 hours ago. Then 6 hours ago I started getting this message that the USB device was malfunctioning. I have tried it in two other USB ports and get the same message.

I went through all the steps that apple gives for fixing. The device is listed as an unknown device in device manager and I have gone through that fix of enabling and finding new software several time. I have looked for the Apple Moblie Device and found it and it says it's working properly. Obviously it isn't! I have turned off the computer and let it sit for a few hours and it still won't connect. I have tried to reset the iTouch and I get the white apple to show up, but then it goes right back to normal. I never get a message that iTunes detects an iPod in recovery mode.

The iTouch has VERY low battery at this point. I tried plugging it into my car, but it won't work there, either. I tried using the cable from my last iPod and it won't work with that cable either. I get all the same issues when using the other cable.

Is there anything else I can do or should I just return this iTouch to the store and get my money back?
