Hi everyone! I am having trouble uploading to my Nano.

I wanted to upload my code, but it didn't work. Then I tried uploading the simple "Blink" code, and it didn't work. It would verify with no errors, but it would have errors and take a really long time to upload, and it didn't upload. This is the error. All of it is in red. Thanks!

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

Assuming that you have got the correct port and board selected in the IDE what have you got selected for the Processor ? If it is set to one of the ATmega328P options then change it to the other one and try another upload

Ya changed the settings until it worked. Thanks!

As you may have gathered, there is more than one bootloader available, hence the options

Arduino being open-source, has many copies legally avialable in market to purchase like the one's found on Ebay for around 3$, which is quite reasonable, so these CLONE NANO's are associated with some problems, because of alternate parts being used to make it cheaper, so in this instructable, we will identify and solve 5 major arduino nano clone problems.
