Nova Basic Kit USB Device Not Recongised

Hi, I just got my Nova Basic Kit a few days ago, and started using it the past day, so far I've tested the blink sketch which worked fine, and the accelerometer example on your Nova website which also worked fine. I also used an external EEPROM to save the accelerometer data which I then read later without any problems. This worked fine and I turned off the Nova basic Kit for a while.

After a few hours I tried to use it again (nothing connected on the Nova pins) and my PC keeps telling me that the USB device not recognized (may have malfunctioned). After unplugging it for a while and then replugging it back in it just started working again. I then stopped using the device for another few hours and now its back to the USB device has malfunctioned.

I've tried it on two other computers and can't get it to work at all. Once plugged in the blue light turns on, and the green light turns on. No white light and the red light will either flash without a battery or not flash with it. The device seems to still be working but now I can't upload or change any sketches to it. I looked around online and this guy http://www.enchantedage.com/nova-basic-kit seems to have a similar problem? Although I don't have any programmers to test it with? If it helps, the second time it happened was after battery went flat using the Nova.
