Firmware flashed but still can't connect

Hi

The guilty truth - I got myself into this mess by doing a probably unnecessary reboot of my FCboard...I was frustrated and wanted to start over. Anyways, here's my situation:

I'm using cleanflight and a naze32 REV6

By shorting the boot pads on the naze and using the "no reboot sequence", "flash on connect" and "full chip erase" functions in CF, I was able to flash the firmware onto the naze, little loading bar at the bottom said "programming successful" (shown in attached picture), log shows:
2016-08-08 @ 18:36:35 -- Running - OS: Windows, Chrome: 51.0.2684.0, Configurator: 1.2.2
2016-08-08 @ 18:37:15 -- Detected: COM3 - triggering flash on connect


After the firmware is loaded, I hit the connect button and get this:
2016-08-08 @ 18:40:32 -- Serial port successfully opened with ID: 14
2016-08-08 @ 18:40:42 -- No configuration received within 10 seconds, communication failed

I'm at a loss. For all the guide videos I've watched it should connect now but no dice. I know the board works because I was able to connect and control the motors with CF before I made the mistake of rebooting. I appreciate any help, really just can't wait to get flying.

You are still in the Firmware tab. What happens if you try it from the CF tab?

Cheers!

Wake up! Time to fly!
I get this same thing on occasion. Usually after I have connected to clean flight and cycled power with the battery like when you spin up the motors to check them. Usually a simple disconnect the usb from the computer and reconnect it then connect normally with clean flight wakes it back up again. I think there was only like one time I had to totally reboot my computer to get the usb to communicate again.

If that still doesn't work maybe uninstall the USB driver and reinstall it.
