It sort of seems like its the computer which is a problem.
There is a chance the USB ports have been disabled or broken in some way which is stopping them working. Are you able to plug in a mouse or keyboard? or other USB device?
You might need to use a different computer if you can when programming. Unless you can get someone to have a look at the computer to try to fix the problem.
Any other USB device works fine on the computer. I have also tried running it on another computer, and it was unable to upload as well. It’s possible there might be an issue with the most recent version of PROS I am using, but other programming environments are having similar issues.
Do you know if the cables you tried have the ability to transmit data? Some cables only do power and that is insufficient to upload to the brain. Has this cable worked for uploading before?
No ports, then no header.
so that’s the issue.
either something on this PC is really messed up or the drivers are not loaded for some reason.
reinstalling the V5 firmware utility should reinstall drivers.
Reinstalled the firmware utility and still nothing. This computer also has a fresh install of windows; there’s only PROS and the firmware utility installed right now.
Not sure I even know how to disable Ports, but then again I’m a Mac user…
and I guess I would cover that under messed up, I’m sure there’s a dozen ways to create USB problems under windows.
