Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
enabled in File > Preferences.

I'm not a computer master or a complete noob i know i did my part right and im excited to learn more but i caint get past this please help.

Did you look at http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload?

3

Yes I've had a browse thru there and I still haven't found a solution

4

Have you already checked if under Device Settings a new COM Port appears when you connect your board?
Double check that and make sure that COMX matches with the one you had chosen under arduino IDE.

5

Check differnet version of arduino IDE.

USually above error comes when bootloader crashed or TX&Rx pins are occupied with sheild.

if bootloader crashed you need avr pocket programmer.

if you connected TX & rX line un plug it & then try to upload the code.

Read my recent thread here. In my case AMPS-N was right on the money, may or may not be your issue.
