the USB Blaster is not recognized anymore = no appears in "device manager"

A driver problem would be the most likely exlanation, in some rare cases, an USB Blaster lost it's identity (EEPROM data). I didn't yet hear of FT245 hardware defects, that would be the only explanation for complete enumeration failure. Do you see any unknown USB device in the device manager instead?
