Using Arduino Avrdude, stk500, Bootloader issues
1

Hi
I am getting an upload error

I was using an arduino nano initially when I first got this error. I was building some robotic kits for a primary school and once I started programming the 4th microcontroller I started getting this error. When I went back to the three I just programmed I got the same error. I have fifty nano's and they all give me this problem. However I tried my Nodemcu and it was working fine. I also tried my arduino Uno and it was working fine until just now where it also started giving the same exact error.
I checked the com port and selected Board
I checked the cable.
I tried on different computers
I tried the old bootloader
I tried burning bootloader
I tried installing the ch340 drivers
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the IDE
I've tried checking different codes.

The error is
Sketch uses 19890 bytes (61%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 515 bytes (25%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1533 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

The Nano could be nonfunctional, due to faulty wiring or mistreatment. If you have the same problem with many of them, then the programming interface may be defective, the USB port is damaged, or the USB cable is damaged or not a data cable. A phone charger USB cable will not work.

Provide details about the programming interface, and post a picture of the setup.

That indicates that you selected the "328P" option under tools → processor. Try the "old bootloader" option.
