So I am getting the timeout problem that I have seen a number of threads about, but I am not sure what to do next. The RX and TX lights do not light up when I attempt to program the Arduino. I am using Arduino 1.0.3 and have verified the board and the serial port.
Here is the output from my upload attempt:

Code:

avrdude done.  Thank you.

Thanks

And if it helps...this is the error that I get when I try to burn the bootloader.
