Here are a few different answers. Try some of these?

did you also upgrade the ipod touch?
i had issues with my iphone this morning eventually it connected and did all the updates, but it did take a long time.

was having the same problem on Windows XP plus iTunes and the OS would not even recognize the iPod Touch when connected. I was able to fix it by disconnecting my iPod Touch and then selecting from the menu Edit --> Preferences --> Syncing and clicking on the Reset Sync History. I then reconnected the iPod Touch and it went through a complete sync. I have been able to disconnect and re-connect my iPod Touch with no problems.

Under Win VISTA my iTunes (7.7.0.43) totally freezes when I plug in my ipod Touch (but the PC doesn't crash). Under Win XP (same iTunes) this doesn't happen. Under Win XP I can download (for AUD12.99) the ipod Touch v2.0 Firmware and begin to install it. Under Win VISTA I can't (because the iTunes is totally frozen).

I'm pretty sure it's the Apple USB driver not working well with Win VISTA. Under Win VISTA, while my iTunes is frozen, if I go to device manager and uninstall the Apple USB driver that unfreezes my iTunes. Later, as I plug in my ipod Touch again Win VISTA reinstalls the Apple USB driver and then, once again, my iTunes freezes.

From the above behaviour I think it's Apple's USB driver interacting badly with Win VISTA.

hope i helped. let me know. =]
