Hey guys. I am using a mega 2560 to control my 3d printer. Today when powering on, my fuse (modded to accept 24v) touched a resistor and sparked. The board seems to work fine and I can control the printer through the lcd interface still, but I cannot upload firmware onto my board anymore. Whenever I try to upload I end up here

The power light indicates the arduino is on and the L light blinks twice when powered up and when I start uploading, staying on until I start getting timeout issues at which point it turns off. I have read restarted my computer, changed the com port, unplugged and replugged the arduino, but to no avail. I am thinking now that my incident earlier actually did do damage to the board, can anybody confirm this? Or is there something else going on I cant tell?
