Also a pull-up resistor to pin 2 (arduino pin 0), 1-10K ohms, may prevent noise from causing the bootloader to hang on improper serial input noise.Lefty
do you mean a resistor should connect between pin 2 and the Vcc?

Do you mean that this particular LED has a built-in current limiting resistor, or that it is a magic LED?Don
I meant that the led can still work at 5v and nothing bad will happen to it if it will light for a few seconds

(I didn't have 22 pf so I used other small capacitors)
Are the capacitors between 12pF and 22pF and are they both the same value? You might try repositioning the crystal and the capacitors so that you do not need hookup wire between them and the chip. Put the crystal in at an angle and bridge the capacitors over the 'blue line' between the horizontal and the vertical runs of your breadboard.

the capacitors are 0.1 uf each, is that too much?
