This may seem rudimentary but I had a similar issue and it was because the programming cable wasn't in the radio all the way.  Give it a really hard push and try again.  My cable connector was a bit bigger than the slot so if I didn't REALLY push it wouldn't seat all the way in.

You might want to try a different com port.  I must do that frequently with different radios and sometimes have to use a different USB port.
