avrdude done.  Thank you.

im tired of reading about it but just cant figuer out any sugestions?

It could be a problem related to SCK on USBasp. If you set slow SCK it could help for raw chip. Depending on your USBasp programmer if it has a jumper or contacts for soldering the jumper which sets slow SCK. Look at the original Fischl's web for it: USBasp - USB programmer for Atmel AVR controllers - fischl.de .

i got the UsBasp v2 e also tryed with arduino uno has a isp and wasnt able to do it

Arduino ISP should work also for this task. Do you have correctly connected chip? Check it or provide some photo for analyze.

5

Another thing to think about:
Can you bootload the UNO with the USBASP successfully?
If so, you can remove the 328 from the UNO, insert the 328 you want to bootload, and burn the bootloader. Repeat.

6

Did you remember the crystal, loading caps, and decoupling caps?

The sck error is spurious - I've had no problems bootloading virgin 328s with the Chinese asp clones that give that message.

yes mate i have put all the correct components but i finaly solved the problem i did fuse doctor on breadboard and turn out that the fuses wasnt the correct ones so with fusedoctor i was able to recover the dead atmegas back to life :slight_smile:

thanks all for trying to help out
