You will need to restore the phone. Since you can't get it to boot all the way. You will need to put it into DFU mode. Make sure you have ITunes open on your computer and do the following.
Entering DFU Mode on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
Plug your device into your computer with a USB cable.
Turn off the device.
Hold the Power button for 3 seconds.
Hold the Home and Power buttons for 10 seconds.
Release the Power button but keep holding the Home button
Once in DFU mode ITunes will allow you to restore the phone. This should resolve the phone not being able to boot.

You can restore the ipod back to factory settings by putting it into DFU mode. to put it into DFU mode google greenpois0n and download it for your computer and follow only the first steps that put your ipod into DFU mode. After that iTunes should detect that the ipod needs to be restored and it will do the rest. when your ipod is restored just re-sync your ipod.
2) Power the device on by holding the sleep/wake and home button for about 10 seconds. Release the sleep/wake button, but keep holding the home button.
3) If you did it correctly, the device will be showing either a connect to itunes screen (recovery mode) or a black screen (DFU mode) We are trying for DFU mode here, but recovery may work too. Connect the ipod to your computer. iTunes will tell you that it has detected an iPhone or iPod touch in recovery mode.
4) If you see the iTunes icon and cable on your iPhone, your device is not in DFU mode, but in recovery mode. Your device's screen will be black when you are in DFU mode. I always have to try this several times so succeed.
5) Connect your device back to your Pc/Mac and press SHIFT+CLICK (pc) or COMMAND+ CLICK on the restore button.
6) Select the firmware version you'd like to install from your computer. You can google for ipod touch firmare to download the file, or just let it update right from apple. 7) Wait for a couple of minutes and your iPhone/iPod will be as new.
Even though it cannot turn on, it's a good sign that it is connecting to iTunes (the tab, N/A).
Place the iPod into DFU Mode, or force restore. (The tell-tale signs are not present due to its display being off)
Restart the computer or, if possible, try on another comp. *Be sure it is connected via USB Cord. 1) Hold down the home and power (top) button for 10-15 seconds -If the tab appears on connection via USB, it will disappear 2) Let go of the power (top) and continue holding the home button for 30-35 seconds. -The tab will reappear with a popup preceding it. *It is now in DFU Mode.
Now try a regular restore with iTunes. Ignore the firmware you have downloaded and just use stock 2.2.
If the errors continue, then restart the computer and be sure all iTunes processes are ended. Also, it can be finicky and may just need a little bit of time. After each error, follow the above steps to place it into DFU Mode and try again. It can get tedious, but give it time and it'll work.
After it goes to stock 2.2, you can then downgrade with your 2.1 firmware and jailbreak via QuickPwn. just google the said softwares here.they are free wares. but before you start you should have the latest itunes intsalled in your computer and restore the ipod touch agin. and youre done for more info...http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=114820
You have to wipe it and start all over again. Like the day you bought it...
If you wont to do that you will lose all of your data..
But if you wont wont to here is how:
1. You need to put your ipod touch in DFU mode.( google it)
2. your computer should reconize it as (Apple Ipod Touch (DFU) Mode).
3. Start up itunes, and it should say. (iPod touch in recover and or DFU mode) and then it will ask you if you wont to restore & update. Click "yes" and it will take about 10 mins..
then you should be on your way.... Let me know if it worked for you.. Thanks...
So you are having problem with your disabled iPod?
Try this (it may losing of some data): 1. Hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds (it will bring the iPod to DFU-Device-Firmware-Update mode) 2. Connect your iPod to iTunes, and your computer will detect your iPod as DFU mode, your iTunes will detect it. 3. Click restore button, and it will automatically restore your iPod to the factory reset.
Hope that will help! Any questions? Feel free to ask me =]
