There are probably a few ways to do this but the bird had the same situation as you and she bought a progam called 'Pod to PC' and it let her transfer all the data from her iphone to her new laptop. There may be free software available to do it but I wouldnt know where to look online. I think the 'Pod to PC' software cost her Ł7.

Has your original computer completely died? You need to 'deauthorize' the old computer, and 'authorize' the new one - it's under 'Store' in the drop down menus.

If it's completely dead, then the Paul's advice seems sound.

I've used a piece of software recently called 'Tuneaid', allows the transfer of music from your Ipod back to a folder on the PC, whilst retaining all the attached info, so that you can simply drag it back into Itunes. Not sure if its free or if I got a trial version, but have used it successfully.

Give that a go.
