Can an iPod Nano be charged from a Windows 98 SE PC?

Answer:

Chances are, probably not.

Any PC that is running Windows 98 SE probably only has USB 1.x ports, which don't carry enough 'juice' to really charge an iPod nano. Also, iTunes itself (the software manager for the iPod) requires at least Windows 2000 to run.

As an alternative, Apple makes wall chargers for iPods that can be purchased for about $30.
