Hi guys
First of all, Im a noob, so bare with me.
I Just recieved my Arduino yesterday, and have spent all day trying to find a solution for the "avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00" error message. :~
I know there is a lot of subjects in the forum about this already, but none of the solutions have seemed to work for me.
I run a Windows 64-bit computer and the arduino is a Duemilanove ATmega328.
I followed the tutorial on this site on how to get started. When I plugged in my Arduino board, the drivers where successfully installed automatically.
When I check my devices. It says, that it is working proberly and is on COM3.
I made sure to choose the right board and com port in the software.
I also tried resetting the board manually, before/ and during upload (even though what I read suggests the duemilanove has an automatic re-set function yes?)
But when I press upload the following happens (been trying with the blink example sketch):
the RX blinks 3 times, then a pause for approx 10 sec. then the red L13 will be blinking continously.
The bar in the bottom writes:
Uploading...
Binary sketch size: 1.084 bytes (of a 30.720 byte maximum
and then (with verbose output enabled):
Done uploading
Binary sketch size: 1.084 bytes (of a 30.720 byte maximum)

avrdude done. Thank you.
I also did the loop back test. It worked.
Could it be something with the BAUD rate? (I already tried different options with no success).
And what should the "Tools -> programmer -> " be set to? It was set by default to AVRISP mkII (But what is it?)
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks
