Hi all,
My Arduino Mega 2560 has been working fine until I accidentally unplugged the USB cable (also serving as the only power source) in the middle of upload. Now, even the simplest "blink" sketch cannot be uploaded. Please see error code at below.
I have tried various ways found online, and none of them resolve the issue. Did the unplugging corrupted the Arduino?
Please help!
- Disconnect USB (and power), wait for a few minutes, then reconnect
- Press reset while code compiling is almost done
- Checked correct port is selected, also used device manager to cross check COM port selected is correct (in this case COM7)
- Checked correct board and processor
- Tried different port
- Sketch can be loaded to a different Mega
Sketch uses 1470 bytes (0%) of program storage space. Maximum is 253952 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 8183 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.
