iPod Classic 30GB 5th Gen Boot Looping

So I found my old 5th Gen iPod Classic from 2007 and I tried to play music on it but it crashed and went to a "Please Wait. Very Low Battery." screen and it stayed on that screen for almost an entire day with nothing. I read an older forum on this topic but with everything I've read nothings worked. I would put it into Disk Mode but for it to not boot loop in there I've just had to press the Center + Play buttons every two seconds. I got into the Smart Data and I am wondering if anyone can help me with this data:

Retracts: 233

Reallocs: 0

Pending Sectors: 0

Power On Hours: 1082

Start/Stops: 38114

Thanks,

Bronx

EDIT: I got out of the menu and now im on a screen that says "Do Not Disconnect." with a red circle crossed out. Is this a sign for anything?
