ive read a bit, but havent found much help:
I have a new, preassembled duemilanove, but i cannot upload any code: all attempts lead to the program freezing. I would think it was my software not my arduino, but my friend just brought his over and tried it on my pc (xp) and it worked flawlessly. Is there anything i can do to "reset/restore" the arduino so that i might work... or has anyone else had this?
on a side note, when it is plugged in before i try tp upload, if i press the serial monitor, a stream of weird symbols appear in the window. dont know if this means anything.
Any help before i try to send it back would be wonderful.
