Post subject:  PC3000 Portable 3 fault on Port 0 after 7.7 update

At the start of August I updated to 7.7 on PC3000 Portable 3. Since then a fault has developed on Port 0 for SATA devices. When powering on a SATA device everything is normal, until a 'hard reset' is used.

When 'hard reset' is used all lights on the status register change to the faded colour. The same as if when you power on the port and no device is physically connected. The only method to get PC3000 to recognise the device again is to close all PC3000 software and power off PC3000 Portable 3 at the mains plug, then power on again and relaunch the software.

All, NVMe function on Port 0 still works normally.

Whilst I can't be 100% sure this fault did not exist before 7.7 update, I am fairly certain it did not.

Has anyone else had a similar fault, either before or after 7.7 update?

Thanks,
John

Added information:

* Downgrading back to 7.6 and the same fault is still observed.
* Using the "PC-3000 Controller Reset (F6)" button also causes the SATA disk to disconnect and show a blank status register as if no disk is attached.

So I did test port 0, with sata, m.2 AHCI and NVMe, in stand alone mode it works just fine and tried on my second computer and same result it works. But on my laptop port 0 used to work just fine and then it stopped. no updates were installed on windows.
