Guitarport "usb device not recognized"

I'm running Windows 7 64bit with the latest line 6 monkey 1.33 and drivers 4.0.2.6 but I'm getting this error whenever I plug in my USB. This is the second time I'm getting this problem. Now I don't even get an Uninstall option. I've had this error for a week now and no amount of reinstalling will fix this. I think my hardware is broken. Please help.

    Hello,

       

      It's possible it could be hardware related. Have you been able to connect the device to another computer just to be absolutely sure? That really is the only way to know for sure if your hardware is faulty.

    Hello,

        Was the unit purchased new or used?  If you purchased it new, do you still have the dated receipt?

    Got the same probleme with toneport UX1 after 5 years of using. I'll look for receipt but anyway is it possible to change a device bought 5 years ago (or maybe even more)?
