Boarduino question

I posted this on the boarduino forum but no answer yet...

I just received a boarduino so I attempted to load some code using the arduino tools and I received the following upload error:

======================
problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51

With the boarduino USB cable, I have to select Com7 (which is the only new com port that is displayed when I plug the boarduino in..)

I also have an arduino diecemela which I am able to upload this code to but this is using a regular USB cable and I select Com7...

Do I have something set up wrong or need to load some other driver?

any ideas of what i might try next?

Thanks

Do you have the board type for the boarduino identified as a diecimila in the "tools" menu? I'm not sure, but I think it may need to be identified as "NG or older."

You will want to try this, if using a PC, if you haven't tried it already.

Device Manager -> Com Ports -> USB Serial Port -> Port Settings -> Advanced button -> Set RTS On Close
