Nano + static = new bootloader?

I touched my nano before and there was a small static discharge from my finger to a pin from the D5 to the D8 area. The nano has lost the program that was on it and wont allow me to upload a new one because of this error:
avrdude: arduino_read_sig_bytes(): (a) protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x42
avrdude: error reading signature data for part "ATMEGA328P", rc=-2
avrdude: error reading signature data, rc=-1
Im pretty sure a new boot loader should fix this. How do i connect my other arduino to it?
