I used to have that all the time. I have both a Line6 Guitarport and a X3 Live connected and my gearbox and the monkey kept finding only the Guitarport, couldn't see the X3 anywhere.

My X3 drivers weren't installed properly, if I remember well if was the "new hardware detected" that never went through in the correct sequence and it was possible to finish the installation without passing the actual drivers installation (yeah, wierd). It was all very confusing.

But since your's used to work and all of a sudden doesn't possibly makes your problem a different one. But still, check the drivers through the control panels System->Hardware devices->Sound

My driver is version 3.4.1.0 if that is of any help.

I had exactly the same problem...

When you turn the pod, use the navigation button to check the system page. It will show the firmware versions.,

If it shows USB firmware 0.00, then it is probably a hardware problem and you will have to return it for repair like I did....
I love the POD but I got pissed off because it took a month for they to repair (they had to sent it to sweden).

Reinstaling drivers worked for me when I had same problem.

Ive tried all that and it still doesnt work... I dont understand the podx3 sits in the same spot since i got it.. i never move it and have a cover i put on it so it doesnt get dusty....

Does anyone have anymore ideas on how to fix this problem?

Audacity doesnt even know that its on.... it makes that sound like its connected when i turn it on, but nothing is registering that its on

Are you running on a Hibernated or Stand By profile (at boot)?

Just shut everything down and unplug everthing (PC and POD). Let it set for a minute and then boot your PC.

After that then plug in your POD. See if that works.

Good luck

If that doesn't work then shut down again, unplug the POD, boot your PC, reinstall the software for your POD and when it ask you to plug it in do it (you may have to uninstall the POD software first for this to work). Maybe that will fix it.
