    Hey guys, just trying to get my rig back up and running and the JRK's keep disconnection from the computer.

    They start out ok, then whilst still in the JRK configuration (haven't even gotten to sim tools yet) they cant read the firmware and then they disconnect and are gone.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    A USB disconnect is one possibility.

    Have you tried different USB ports, cables and ferrite clip on shields?

    Using same cables and ports as previously, they are the only 2.0 ones I have, can try normal ports I guess
