Here's the thing... Macs have the ability to read/write to PC drives
(FAT16 and FAT32 to be technical)... Windows systems do not have the
ability to read/write to Mac-formatted drives, unless you purchase
3rd-party software to add that ability.
(You may want to check out the free Gemulator Explorer:

The interface is not great shakes-- but it MAY allow you to read your
Mac-formatted iPod as a drive on your PC).
Lacking software on your PC to read/write to Mac drives, the best bet is
to allow the PC to reformat the iPod (yes, you'll lose whatever's on it
now-- so make sure that's backed up before you do this).
Then, it will still be usable with your Mac (though a bit slower),
allowing you to transfer files between the two systems.
Or add Firewire to your PC (it can be done quickly, easily, and cheaply
in most cases)...
