<![CDATA[Core 2 after a failed update: clic clic clic but no visible com port on the pc]]>Hello, Again the problem everybody seems to have. So I try to summarise my situation:

  • It crasehd in an update, dont ask me why.
  • After this, I can not reset the core2. I pushed the 2 buttons in every possible time and combination.
  • The windows does not see the USB/COM 6 anymore.
  • The Core2 is not dead because it does clic clic clic in the speaker.
  • I tried to unplug the battery and plug again, nothing.
    => Do I just have to bin it and order the next one? or is there a way to get this great device back to a normal life? :-)

I was realy lost but tried the following (based on some other reading)

  • I changed the cable and took the short usb cable that I found in the box.
  • I plugged, made myself ready with the erase process
  • I pressed the on, pressed the reset and released, release the on
  • The com6 was again an option on the m5 burner.
  • I started by erasing, the clic clic was still present.
  • I burned a new firmware, the machine is working again.
    I hope it will help similar cases :-)
