Doesn't the instructions say specifically NOT to remove the power supply as it can damage the unit?

LOL.... ;)

Maybe you can try to do the following :

(from the manual...loving the first part...hehe)

Please ensure a stable power supply whilst installing the
firmware, and don’t go touching any knobs, no matter how
tempted you may be, until the installation is completed!!

It always makes good sense to perform a system reset after
updating the firmware – to do this, simply power off the Virus
by pressing both of the Transpose keys, and press ARP EDIT.

In the unlikely event that the installation process fails, you will
need to put the Virus into Update Mode before running the
firmware installer again. To do this, remove the power cable
and hold down the EXIT button whilst you reconnect it.
