Avrdude: ser_open(): can't set com-state for "\\.\COMx"

[hape]

hi
the message above the x is for 3, 4 , 6 , 7
i have 5 new Nano from China. I have tried this:
all available Com Ports (USB2 and USB3) a few cables.
The driver Manager says for example:

installed Arduino IDE 2.1.0 two times (Win 10)
done with old and new bootloader
installed the CH340 driver
always get:

avrdude done. Thank you.

Fehlgeschlagenes Hochladen: Hochladefehler: exit status 1

has anyone any idea what the error could be beside CH340 wrong port?
that would be very nice because i do want to programm the Nano with USB and not per FTPI or other things
thx in advance
hape

[kolaha]

bitte lösche diese unendliche unformatierte und unnötige Fehlermeldung.
zeige was du in Menu "werkzeuge" hast; gibts da Prozessor Auswahl?

[hape]

Arduino IDE 2.1.0

[kolaha]

select this option and try again

[hape]

done same problem

[kolaha]

do you got any working board, that you can using as "Arduino as ISP" programer ?

[hape]

i have used another Arduino Nano from China. This one works. Also with an USB-Asp i can flash the Arduino and i see it as CH340 in Win 10. The USB is describe in the product sheet as CH340C but there is nothing labled on the chip. Its this one https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005001447227362.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.3.11656368anmkVb&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu
What could be the problem???
any ideas?
hape

[kolaha]

look video how to prepare one arduino to be a programmer and how using it to reprogram other (second) arduino board. you should know, if Atmega328p chip not contain bootloader then any signals from PC converted by CH340 doing nothing, Atmega not hearing them, but bootloader checks pins 0 and 1, and react on signals.

[hape]

hi
i have flashed a bootloader via USB-ASP on the Nano. But the Nano is not reacting. I take the Bootloader from inside of the Arduino IDE 2.1.0. Could this the wrong choice?
hape

[kolaha]

@hape

I take the Bootloader from inside of the Arduino IDE 2.1.0

there are many variants. which one did you take?

[hape]

i make it like this:

i didn't see any other choices

[kolaha]

ah, ok, so you burn bootloader, disconnect USBASP, connect USB cable, select right port and try upload. and you say it not succeed

[hape]

yes thats exactly what i'm doing - before i tried it without bootloader burn

[kolaha]

to be sure i understand you : you was able to burn bootloader without errors. yes?

[hape]

yes

[kolaha]

fine. make it. then disconnect usbasp from board and Computer. and try normal to upload some sketch.

[hape]

i have done this and get the error i mentioned above

[kolaha]

if you did tried any processor option, then CH340 driver is glitchy or CH340 self

[hape]

so you mean these Arduinos are unusable for programming via USB?
