Arduino Uno R3- Chip possibly fried

Using Arduino IDE 1.x

Hello,

I have an Arduino Uno R3 chip: ATMEGA328P-PU. About 30 seconds after powering the arduino the chip gets extremely hot. When it is powered, the power ON LED is green, and stays green. I can't load anything to the board, and when I hit the reset button, nothing blinks. Nothing else in the board is hot, just the chip. Also note that I currently have nothing connected to the board, just the USB to my laptop. Even when I try AC power, it still gets very hot. I have even tried to upload a blank code, which normally uploads but does nothing, it takes a little while, and then I receive this error message:

Has anyone had any of these signs? And if so, did you conclude that your board or just the chip was the problem? How did you fix this issue?

Thank you in advance for your help and time.

About 30 seconds after powering the arduino the chip gets extremely hot.

That indicates one or more IO pins, or the whole chip, have been damaged. Replace it. Get a spare.
Atmega328P-PU, can get bootloaded chips from many places, such as

I ordered a new chip, thank you for your help.

When the chip gets here, do I just place it in or do I have to install it or something?

Chip with bootloader - just to replace. Without bootloader - the bootloader need to be loaded first.
