Problem uploading the bootloader to an arduino uno

Development Tools Uploading

hello i was testing the usbasp programmer i bought on an arduino uno but used the wrong function in avrdude and erased the atmega328p chip.So i tried to upload the bootloader using the usbasp but it shows an error.Here is the error copied using the copy error function in arduino ide :

         Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override

avrdude done.  Thank you.



Error while burning bootloader.

I do not know what you did with 328P but if you somehow have set the defaults, this could help.
There is "Slow SCK" jumper/pads on USBasp which should be closed. It depends on your specific version of USBasp where the jumper is. Chinese USBasps have not the jumper installed so the pads are unused. There are 3 jumpers: 5V/3V3, Slow SCK, Self Programming. Only the first one used to be installed on these from ebay.
Check this out:

the original project.

I have couple of these:

I am gonna try that but maybe a little bit later at about 10am.the odd thing is that that avrdude 7.1 works just fine with this setup

4

it shows the same error
ps.i used zadig to install the libusb-win32 driver

5

it was fixed by using the libusbk driver
