Hi there,
I'm not 100% sure this is the best place to post so if moderators think it should be elsewhere please move it. Anyway, I have an issue using ArduinoISP. I have an old duemilanove and I cut the DTR trace to stop auto reset. I then try to run avrdude and I get the following error:
C:\Users\****\Desktop\arduino-0022\hardware\tools\avr\bin>avrdude -b 19200 -c
avrisp -P com3 -p t45 -t -v -C ../etc/avrdude.conf

I've tried with the recent avrdude 5.11 binary, the winavr binary and the arduino binary but none of them seem to work. Its not the fact its resetting since I continuity tested with my multimeter and it is definitely cut. I really have no idea what is going on and I've asked in IRC channels and they can't seem to help either. I've seen a few other people with this issue but nobody seems to have posted a fix. Thanks.
