possibly wrong board, wrong USB / Serial port, wrong data cable....

Please do this:

(In the Arduino IDE) File > Preferences
Uncheck the checkbox next to "Show verbose output during: compilation"
Check the checkbox next to "Show verbose output during: upload
Click "OK"
Sketch > Upload
After the upload fails, you'll see a button on the right side of the orange bar "Copy error messages" (or the icon that looks like two pieces of paper at the top right corner of the black console window in the Arduino Web Editor). Click that button.
In a forum reply here, click on the reply field.
Click the </> button on the forum toolbar. This will add the forum's code tags markup to your reply.
Press "Ctrl + V". This will paste the upload output between the code tags.
Move the cursor outside of the code tags before you add any additional text to your reply.

thx, hope you can help me.

Do you get the same error if you select Tools > Processor > ATmega328P and try an upload?

If you have an official Arduino Nano made by Arduino that you bought in 2018 or 2019 then you should select Tools > Processor > ATmega328P. If you have an official Nano bought before 2018 or a Nano made by any company other than Arduino then you should select Tools > Processor > ATmega328P (Old Bootloader). Clearly there's some other problem, but having the wrong Tools > Processor item selected will also cause the upload to fail so it's important that you have the correct selection from that menu in addition to fixing whatever the other problem is causing the upload to fail.

Remove any connections to pins 0 and 1. These pins are used for communication with your computer, including uploads. Connecting anything to these pins can interfere with uploads.

Make sure you have selected the port of your Arduino board from the Tools > Port menu.

If you don’t know which port is your Arduino, you can find it like this:

Unplug your Arduino board from the computer.
Tools > Port
Note the ports, if any, listed in the menu.
Close the Tools menu
Plug your Arduino board into the computer.
Tools > Port - The new port listed in the menu is your Arduino board.
