Virus TI fails to synchronize patches

  • Hi all,


    Up until yesterday, Virus Control used to work flawlessly on my setup (TI OS 4.5, Windows 7 64-bit, Reaper 32-bit). The latency is huge, but otherwise everything was fine - VC initialized without a hitch and worked properly.
    Yesterday I started getting the dreaded "communication error" message -

    Zitat

    A Communication error has occurred. The Virus TI does not respond to request messages or the transmitted data is corrupt. Please be aware that the RAM banks in the browser window will not correspond to the actual content in the device! Please check your system setup.


    I've no idea what could have changed to cause this. Most definitely I didn't change the USB configuration or install any hardware or software.
    I did have a session when I modified a few patches on the Virus hardware (without VC), but then, that's what synchronization is supposed to handle, isn't it?


    The following didn't help:

    • Restarting the Virus (disconnect USB and power supply, wait 10 seconds)
    • Restarting the computer
    • Disabling antivirus
    • Running Reaper with or without Administrator privileges


    Any ideas for troubleshooting? I'm at loss here...
