Welcome to iLounge,
Note the sad bolded phrase at the bottom.
To remove the maximum volume limit:
1. If you are currently listening to your iPod, press Pause.
2. Select Settings > Volume Limit.
3. If you set a combination, enter it by using the Click Wheel to select the numbers and pressing the Center button to confirm them.
4. Use the Click Wheel to move to the maximum level on the volume bar to remove any restriction on volume.
5. Press the Center button to accept the change.
Note: If you forget the combination, you can restore iPod.
Here is the original file into getting into the screen lock file, the volume file may be there too.
On a different side, if you have access to the iPod's hard drive you can try to browse through the hidden files and see if you can find the file that tells you the combination. The original iPod digital lock had the combination stored in a file somewhere on the iPods hard drive. I think in iPod_control. Once you could read the file, but a recent thread I found in a search said this file is now encrypted...
