I just had a similar thing happen. I updated my Orion II and it worked
fine. When I tried to update the Orion I v2, I consistently got a
communications failure message. The update program screen did show "0 of
... Lines" at the bottom, and looked sort of like it should be working, but
it wasn't updating anything. (The "orion detected" message was missing from
the top of the Update window).
I did a Master Reset and then went back into update mode, and it worked
fine.
The Update utlilty does automatically configure the COM port to the correct
parameters, so that probably isn't your issue. I would also suspect that
there would be errors of other kinds if it was really a problem with flash
memory in the radio -- but one never knows .. :)
