Cannot download my new program to Javelin

Im having trouble downloading my new updated program. All of a sudden the bot wouldn't download the updated program. My computer identifies the bot, and everything was the way it was before it stopped working. When i click the debug button, the pop up window says "resetting" then the pop up disappears. Once in a while, the pop up window will say "resetting" followed by "downloading", but the progress bar never starts and the pop up disappears again.

(I've tried connecting the bot two two differnect computers and the same thing occurs)

Is this a problem with my computer, board of education or the javelin chip itself?

    Are you powering from batteries?
    If so, try fresh batteries.
    If not, check your power supply. Disconnect anything but the javelin.
    See if download then still fails.

    Im using a power supply and ive checked it many times. It seend to be fine when i plug it into different things. Im getting afraid that the javelin stamp is burnt. The board of education is being reconized by the computer but when i press debug, it pops up and disapears.

    If you think so please tell me?

    (I saw no spark of a glimpse of smoke when i used the javelin)

    If you use an USB connection to program the javelin,

    check your usb port settings and make sure Windows is not allowed

    to disable the usb port to conserve energy.
