Burn Bootloader -> w/ Arduino as ISP option

  • I connected my Arduino Uno to my computer with a usb cable

  • Then I uploaded ArduinoISP

  • Then I unplugged the usb cable(killing power to the board)

  • Then I setup my board in http://arduino.cc/en/uploads/Tutorial/SimpleBreadboardAVR.png

  • Then I connected a 120 ohm resistor directly from the reset hole to a hole on the breadboard right next to the 5V(so that they are connected and the board was setup for burning the bootloader)

  • Then I plugged the usb cable back in

  • Then I selected ATmega328 on a breadboard (8 MHz internal clock)

  • Then I went to the "burn bootloader" drop down menu and selected "w/ Arduino as ISP"

Then I got this error
(I tried this multiple times with the same error)
