Well, downloaded and installed Vista onto my Dell 9150. Installation was
FAST and easy. First thing I tried using was my 60GB Video iPod. iTunes
kept saying someone else eas using it and iTunes could not access it. Tried
EVERYTHING.

Come on Microsoft, I would have thought the iPod (since there are BILLIONS
of them out there) would have WORKED with Vista.

Maybe if I tried a WMA certified music player I would not have wasted HOURS
trying to get this to work.

What does MS have to do with this.

Your sentence should have been:

"Come on Apple, I would have thought...."

It's Apple's job to make it work.

You need to contact Apple about iPod support on Vista since thirdparty
applications usually break with new releases of Windows, and Apple is the
developer and manufacturer of the software and hardware.

If the songs are at the My Music folder, make a new folder at your desktop or
somewhere away from My Music folder, and make iTunes read them from that new
folder. Try to upload some to your iPod. After that, you can move themback to
your My Music folder.
