Error 14 on my 1st Generation iPod after trying to

I had the same problem twice with my first generation iPod Touch. After a crash I put my iPod in recovery mode. Every time during the system install the iPod broke off the installation and error Code 14 appeared on my Mac.
I tried many times, with no results... always the same error code.
I put the iPod aside..., a few weeks later, I connected my iPod again to the computer (Mac) and had a new try... the recovery went smoothly and the system was reinstalled... my iPod was working again.

A few weeks ago my iPod froze again, again error code 14 during
the installation. Tried to reinstall the OS, again with no success.
I put the iPod aside... I tried again today (after 3 weeks) and the installation succeeded.
Maybe strange but worth a try!

the problem might be that ypur running it for the wrong ipod, or either you messed up during the proceess. either way trying doing it again.
