Hi everyone,
I'm working on a custom board for some IC testing and have an ATmega328p to control it all. I've been trying to install the arduino bootloader to simplify the programming steps however after a day of trying I can't get it working.
I'm using the ArduinoISP method wit;
Arduino Mega 2560 with the ICSP pins going to MISO, MOSI, SCK, GND, 5V and Reset going to pin 10.
But the error i get is
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
.
Verbose outputs gives

I have also tried the Gammon Programming Tool with the same setup, getting the following results

.......
The options pressed were U for Uno and G for program.
If this is run multiple times in succession then the device signature changes every so often, becoming an unrecognized device. I have two custom boards, and have the same errors on both of them.
I had thought the 328p's were burnt in the assembly but if the signature is read correctly (most of the time) then I'm not sure what the problem is.
Anyone seen this before? Got any solutions?
Cheers
