AZSMZ Connection Issues... Again

Hi, After getting my AZSMZ board, I took the following actions:

- Updated the smoothieboard driver

- Disabled USB SD card control (Said to be a reason for connection issues)

- Successfully hooked up thermistors, displaying proper temperatures

- Added a 24V 20A Power supply

After all this, I plugged in a NEMA17 stepper motor where it locked (current and voltage was flowing) and connected it to pronterface, managed to move it 2 times, then the board disconnected and would not connect until the board and computer were completely restarted. After I connected it again, stepper didn't lock, and pronterface gave me this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "printrun\pronterface.pyc", line 1053, in connect
File "printrun\pronsole.pyc", line 720, in connect_to_printer

File "serial\serialwin32.pyc", line 186, in _reconfigurePort
ValueError: Cannot configure port, some setting was wrong. Original message: [Error 31] A device attached to the system is not functioning.

I tried different steppers, but no luck, they wouldn't lock anymore. (When it was working, the driver and motor did NOT get hot, only warm, their current was only 1.2A flowing through it so I definitely didn't blow a driver) - My Nema17 motor is rated 1.2A and my stepper drivers can handle up to 1.7A

I will paste my configuration in the case that I did make a mistake

Please use a digital camera or mobile phone to format your TF card.
After the AZSMZ is connected to the computer, don't connect the pronterface immediately, you must see the USB disk content in the compute, then you able to connect pronterface , otherwise it will appear the connection error. Thanks.

Not the case, it shows the sdcard connected but it still doesn't connect to pronterface, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

I formatted the sdcard and no difference after adding the config again

In the picture you see the sd card connected and the pronterface attempting connection. I have done everything from powering off the board and using different cables to restarting, reinstalling drivers. 10% of the time it connects

Baud rate error, Thanks.

# Serial communications configuration ( baud rate default to 9600 if undefined )
Serial.baud_rate 115200 # Baud rate for the default hardware serial port

I changed baudrate and used different micro usb cables, I still haven't been able to connect.

I can also edit and work with the config file, view the second photo, I have access to config and changes, but I can't connect it to my computer, I used to, but not anymore.

Not uart0.baud_rate
Is serial.baud_rate
Thanks.
