arduino not booting after uploading code with no delays

Question

I ran this code on an arduino now i can no longer upload code or connect to the board i think its stuck in a loop?? my pc picks it up but i cant connect (allready in use error) i unplugged and plugged back in now no error but still cant connect... is their a jumper to restore or???

//no delay... how bad is it??
void setup(){
  //start serial connection
  Serial.begin(9600);
  pinMode(8, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(11, INPUT);
//no delay... how bad is it??  
};
int count =0;
void loop(){
  //no delay... how bad is it??
  digitalWrite(8,LOW);
  digitalWrite(9,HIGH);
  int Data = digitalRead(11);
  if (Data==0){
    //no delay... how bad is it??
    while (count!=16){
      Serial.print(digitalRead(11));
      count =count+1 ;
    }
     Serial.println("");
     count=0;
  } 
//no delay... how bad is it??
};

What circuit is it connected to? I had the same problem when I put +12v down one of the input pins. — blarg, Aug 08 '13 at 11:22

Please refer to this question and answer. I had the same problem with my Arduino.

Either that or just reinstall the drivers. Arduino guide for Windows.

Sometimes the serial port isn't closed properly by your pc and the pc thinks it is still in use.

You can:

reboot your PC
assign another comport to the arduino in the device manager
