I checked everything in the post that you linked me to and still have the problem.
I proceeded with the "Debug", as instructed in the final step. and went to post the results only to realize that the thread is labeled "CLOSED" -- so I will post it here in hopes that in addition to the previous error (that I also got again about the device being unable to be read after connected) it will enable some one to identify my problem and a fix for it

Hope someone can understand these errors (that seem like jibberish to me) and help me out.
Thanks for reading.
