Hello
Just received a starter kit with several components and Arduino Uno :
https://kitskart.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Arduino-Uno-R3-1.jpg
Looks the same as this one.
Installed IDE and connected the board via USB. It has LED lit : ON and L is blinking. It says it is connected on COM1 if that helps.
Tried to upload Blink sketch to the board and it shows error. I another one called Fade and it gives same error.
Btw i am absolute beginner in this so explain like you would to 15y old kid Also i would ask kindly to post tuts for this specific board. Thanks
Post screenshot from Device Manager and, if present, detailed information about the device properties, mainly Details Tab > Property > Hardware ID

Thats NOT an Arduino UNO - So the driver you may have installed is not the correct one. GOOGLE CH340 Driver.
So, it is some Chinese board ?
Btw when i run the exe, and click install it says : Driver installation failed
EDIT : Here is scr shot of device manager
Device Properties > Details Tab > Property > Hardware IDs

I solved it now, i turn on my brain for a bit and saw that it was not using the right port (driver says COM3) and but in software it was not selected for some reason.
I uploaded BLINK to test and it works now. Thanks so much for this I ll leave positive karma. Btw could post some resources for this board and components that i own. This is the kit i bought :

You can click on image and see what it is inside. There is list of components so maybe google chrome could translate page. It would help a lot.
