Trying to flash Ebb 42 Can 1.2 but it will not go into DFU mode for flashing? any suggestions?

Building a Vcore 4 and have been successful without help on everystep until now lol. What could i possibly be doing wrong ? did the button sequence multiple times. Switched USB ports on my pc from the front ports to the back and have plugged all three boards in and off multiple times to reset. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you sir! You were correct! Connected to an alternative power source I was able to flash both boards easily!

if you are following RatOS instructions, you should not connect it to the pc. Rather connect it to the RPi

I have run into the same problem and no matter what I do it will not go into DFU mode. I have not been able to trouble shoot it as I'm in holiday and will be back in 3 to 4 weeks.

So just to be clear I have the rpi4 plugged into my pc and then i have the octoboard and ebb cam board connected to the pi. Which is how I thought it was supposed to go ? Flashed the main board fine.

Nope. Raspberry should be powered properly. Maybe that is the issue
