How to use this forum

What Arduino? Please don't use all caps in the thread heading.

try uploading the bootloader first. Then again upload your sketch. Then report us again if you face the issue. The bootloader may have some errors. try reuploading the bootloader first.

can i do that using my arduino Uno ? or i need any other hardware to burn bootloader ?

I am a newbie too.. There must be plenty of procedures of burning the bootloader. Do you have any one of them..?

  1. Usbasp programmer..?
  2. Another arduino board..?

process 1,

Process 2,

hope that helps... Update your progress regarding the bootloader issue in your next post.
cheers

Initially I was facing the same issue of bootloading. I had only a Usbasp programmer & Arduino IDE. The issue is solved not. The solution is in the abovementioned threads.
