I don't understand how it could have ever worked if you are not polling and
not using CI-V Transceive.  I believe you must use one or the other, and
the CI-V setting in the IC-910 menu must be compatible with what you select
in Win-Test, including:

CI-V Address (must be 60h)
CI-V Baud rate (should be 19200 or 9600)
CI-V Transceive (should be ON)

In Win-Test, select *both* Use CI-V Transceive and select "Don't poll" and
set the baud rate to 19200.  If that doesn't work, try 9600 (after
selecting 9600 in the Radio's menu).

Finally, does your RS-232 port on your PC use a USB-to-Serial adapter?  If
so, what does it show in the device manager as the Driver type?  (Start,
Run, devmgmt.msc, expand Ports, right click on COM4, select Properties,
look at Driver tab).
