Hello! I've had trouble uploading sketches to one of my Unos so I thought I'd try to burn a new bootlader to it from another functioning Uno, but this is also causing problems. I've tried connecting the two boards via the digital and power pins and using the ICSP header pins but I get an error both times. Anyone know how to fix this? I've checked all the cables are connected properly and have followed the instructions on the Arduino website carefully (correct port, Board: "Arduino Uno", Programmer: "Arduino as ISP", using example 11.ArduinoISP > ArduinoISP).
This is the error message:

avrdude done. Thank you.
If it's useful the programmer board states "UNO" on the back so it might be an earlier generation. It is fully functional though. The target UNO is "UNO R3 'SMD edition".
If it's also useful, this is the error message I get when trying to upload sketches to the faulty Uno.

Problem uploading to board. See https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/sections/360003198300 for suggestions.
Any help greatly appreciated, I don't want to throw away this board!
