Request your help to assess and fix this issue, is there any firmware upgrade needed? i have done multiple resets of the debugger by removing the power/connection from the laptop, but of no use.

Please take a look at the troubleshooting tips here:

Personally I hit this error as well a while ago when I was working with XDS200 and TM4C1294LP. The error was intermittent, but in some instances, it would get into a state where a simple disconnect/reconnect or power cycle of the emulator was not sufficient to clear the issue, instead a restart of the PC was required. I was also running an older version of the firmware at that time, so you may want to check that you are running the latest firmware (1.0.0.6). My setup got a lot more stable after updating the firmware.
