I tried it with my other ipod cables too.Most likely bad cable. They aren't the most reliable component. I have had my iPod Nano G3 cable malfuinction, when plugged in it believes it is being disconnected/reconnected at a very fast rate.
Substitute the cable, all of them work, even iPhone ones.
Also, did XP give a 'USB Device Not Recoignised' or 'USB Device Malfunction' alert?
Check for USB driver updates.
Other than that, just search manually.
It did work before yeah? It is not a new PC your using it on is it?
Does the 'Found New Hardware' bubble not come up?
Step 1: Return it, for one that works.
