Have you checked your cable driver? If Device Manager shows your cable to be a Prolific, roll your driver back to 3.2.0.0.

Thanks in advance, Danny

Not uncommon. Here's a link that may assist. Too much rubber on the case.

Danny,

One of the problems with the GT-3 series case style is that the ridge around the 2-pin socket well can prevent the 2-pin plug from being fully inserted into the socket. No programming software will work if you don't have a complete and working connection between the radio and computer. See this page for details of a possible fix.

I that isn't the problem, it would help if you would include the debug.log file. This page show you how to locate the debug.log file.
