What exact error message are you getting?
Does it match any of the messages on the Miklor.com site?

I guess I'll add my problems to this list RE: baofeng uv-5r+ had my radio for a month now and have yet to get it to program via the usb cable. First problem was the prolific driver with the yellow ! got that resolved buy installing 3.2.0.0 version, however keep getting communication error with radio and pc. I'm beginning to formulate the opinion that this item is just a piece of crap, no wonder its so cheap. btw, I have tried everything under the sun including emailing the company which has yet to respond to date
