I have an arduino uno r3 board,
atmega328p-pu = big chip,
mega16u2 = small chip
and am trying to connect to it with my pc (windows 10) , but uploading the bare minimum code produces this error;
Sketch uses 444 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

avrdude done. Thank you.
Failed uploading: uploading error: exit status 1
The device manager shows the port, and lists it as 'Arduino UNO (COM9) '
and the arduino shows the port when plugged in, disappearing when removed.
There are no connection on the board, just the usb cable.
when plugged in the ON light comes on and stays lit,
the L light comes on and stays on (not blinking)
when trying to upload the program the rx light blinks at each attempt out of 10
I have seen a post and followed the advice
theres a few similar ones that mention problem with the bootloader, but im not sure how to fix (i only have 1 board)
