HIYA! sorry it didnt make sense but i finally fixed it and yes i already that threads method and IT WORKED! (kinda) see i was using this USB cable for a long time now and when it kept failing i kinda just threw it against a wall and started shouting profanitys at it. So after i cooled down i went to my neighbor's and asked if he had a printer cable i could borrow and he did so i tried it again and it worked. so long story short test your USB's at least 5 times before updating. (mines in the trash now).
