Diecimila with Atmega 168 and i select "Diecimila or duemilanove w/ Atmega 168". I tried in other computer and the same error.
When i disconnect and reconnect the arduino to pc the led ( led associated to pin 13 ) dont blink, only power led is on ( green led ). The bootloader is failing maybe?
I connected arduino to usb in pc. Everything worked fine until today... i was working with VRbot and arduino.
I read the guide anted to ask in forum.
Thanks
EDIT:Ah, I tried too with arduino 0019, and the error is:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51
Have you got a second board handy? You could try running the sketch here on the one that works:
That will detect the chip signature on your "faulty" board, and also the MD5 sum of the bootloader. This will confirm a few things, like if it is reacting at all.
I was working with VRBot ( in arduino of course ), only was using the digital pins 12 and 11, 5V and GND. Well, and two leds in digital pins 8 and 9. Nothing more.
I changed my sketch and appeared this error when i was uploading the new sketch.
Thursday, friday and monday morning everything worked fine.
i found a different solution to the stk500_ ... error, but don't know where to post it.
somebody pointed out to the young fellow that he was in the wrong place to discuss this, but i didn't see a direction to where he should be.
how about telling me so i can post what worked for me.
I got the same error that means arduino board is not communicating with the pc or there is something wrong in the bootloader what i did to resolve this issue was checking weather the arduino board and the communication port is correctly selected or not then i re-extracted the arduino-1.5.6-r2 and the sketch got uploaded
