Did you check if Windows still recognizes it if you press MODE? Maybe it is not brickedPontus II can't wake up from standby after a failed FPGA firmware update to version 1.4.
I completely failed today while updating the FPGA from version 1.3 to version 1.4. My initial FPGA upgrade went smoothly. On a different PC, though, the flushing software started but ended with an error message when I tried it today. When I switch the DAC back on after it has been turned off, it is still in standby mode and not responding.
Any assistance or knowledge would be greatly appreciated in this case.
I almost fked up when I downloaded 1.4 for the other FPGA version then rechecked and downloaded the right one, you downloaded the right one yes?
Edit: You might wanna talk to Alvin/Denafrips and ask them if they could help you if you buy a JTAG 10 pin development/programmer board so you could revive it without sending the Pontus
