I'm pretty sure I blew my ATmega328 on the Arduino Uno R3.

I bought pre-programmed chip from Adafruit and got the same error...until I read the website:

Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE

Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE

Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE

Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE

Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE


yes even with the UNO. Be sure to select "DUEMILANOVE with ATMEGA328" in the Arduino IDE

hope this help. I know I didn't find a solution very easily, well at least not very quickly!!!!
