My iPod won't show up on itunes!!!!! How do i fix that problem?

[Dark]

I got a new dell computer, which has window 7 on it. I downloaded itunes but my iPod won't show up in itunes or on My Computer. I looked it up on the Apple website and it says that i have to Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall and Restore. Will this delete all music and videos on my iPod?

I would try holding down the top button and the bottom button simultaneously before I would try to restore. You have to hold them down until the iPod restarts.
