Hi,
i am on CWM and forgot to flash TWRP before upgrading ARHD. Now the phone is in a bootloop and cant enter recovery anymore.

I can enter fastboot mode on the device, it even shows "Fastboot USB", but on windows (8.1) i only get the "device not recognized" message, and in the device manager it says "Unknown USB device (Device failed Enumeration).
I use the original HTC cable on a USB port on the backside of the PC.

I have tried using the google adb drivers, and i tried installing htc sync, both to no avail.

UNLOCKED, S-ON
HBOOT 1.44.0000
RADIO 4A.16.3250.24
OpenDSP v26.120.274.0202

Any ideas how i can get my PC to "enumerate" my phone?

You need to use the fastboot erase cache command from your pc when in fastboot USB mode on your phone
