I've upgraded my vexnet firmware to 4.25. I can successfully upload and run code from my PC via a USB cable without any issues. As soon as I unplug my USB cable from the cortex, nothing happens.

The GAME light flashes fast yellow
The VEXnet led flashes slower and orange
The ROBOT led flashes slow green.
Then, all three flash red occasionally.

Any ideas?

thanks
