[chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

[Silverfox]

I forgot that you are on Windows.  The windows OS is very poor supporting USB.  You might try going into the device manager and tell it to show hidden devices.  Once that is done, look at the USB entries and delete all of them that are diminished icons.  That is, they are lighter than the other icons.
Good luck.

hi, still no luck. 
I went to the web site and put a death-grip on the plug and held it in as far as it would go. I trimmed a hair of the edges of the plug to let it seat on the bottom. 

thanks for the suggestions

On Wednesday my 2 BaoFeng UV 5R radios could download and upload to CHIRP.  
On Friday all I got was the following message:  Radio Did Not Respond.
I tried reloading the latest version of CHIRP, no change.  I tried an earlier version of CHIRP, no change. I reloaded the latest version back, no change.  Visually the radio's red light blinks then the LED display blinks then the error message shows up on CHIRP.
 
Any suggestions?
Thanks Chuck KJ7INT
