Arduino Make Your Uno doesnt work

I build my own Arduino Make Your Uno but i cant upload code. The error message i receive all the time is:
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x71

My compute recognizes the board on the usb port. Furthermore the IDE recognizes it too. But uploads dont work. I already flashed the bootloader using another Uno R3 and it worked (the ide wrote that it worked)
By pressing the reset button nothing happens. The AT Mega328P works, i know cause i switched the microcontroller with the one from a third board and there it worked perfectly fine.
Thats also before the error message. Could it be that the BaudRate is too high? And if yes, how do i change it?
Using Port : COM5
Using Programmer : arduino
Overriding Baud Rate : 115200
Thanks for possible help

Would you verify:
IDE >> TOOLS >> BOARD >> ARDUINO AVR BOARDS >> your board
IDE >> TOOLS >> PORT >> your port

What's that?

I have been looking at this documentation.
https://makeyouruno.arduino.cc/makeyouruno/module/projects/lesson/03-make-your-uno

It appears that "blink" was programmed into the AT328 and the reference says

When we power the board, we should see an LED blinking. This is one evidence that we have soldered our board correctly.

Did you see that?

There is no reference to needing to burn a bootloader. Why did you do that?

I already flashed the bootloader using another Uno R3 and it worked (the ide wrote that it worked)
By pressing the reset button nothing happens.

Typically you should see three quick flashes on the led when pressing the reset button and the bootloader is present. "Nothing happens" is an indicator that the bootloader is not correctly installed.

Just for your information, i also looked at the documentation and noticed that is used two 47 nF capacitors instead of 22pF omfg

it's a DIY arduino that arduino themselves made as a kit just so you know
