problems uploading to old arduino

So i have a problem with my old arduino. I havent had it connected to a computer since probably early 2016. And now i want to use this 1 again for a projected, so connected it, wanted to upload the code and then i get the probably well known problem of not having connection or something

Probleem bij het uploaden naar het board. Zie http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload voor suggesties.

so i tried putting it back to an older version wich i found online as some people on other forums suggested, nothing(that is why it says 1.6.5) Checked for the com port, seems good, recognizes the arduino. If i unplug the usb that port is gone. So i think i got that all good and working. But still the thing wont upload.
Also worth mentioning might be that this arduino has been used without any problems in the past, so i dont think there should be anything wrong with it.(it still works on the old code, but i dont need that anymore)

Are you connecting to the same PC as in 2016?

yes but on a different hd because the ssd decided to let the smoke out last year. So its not the same install.(wich i think is what you want to know)

also forgot to mention, tryed 2 usb cables(pulled the 1 from my printer) And also tryed it on my laptop just in case my pc is doing something wrong. But it dosn't work on my laptop either.

Does loopback test work?

What serial adapter IC does it use?

it says Atmega16U2 on it so i guess that would be it right? Its a uno r3

i have been trying again a few things i found on google and youtube. But none of those have worked for me. Is there a way i can check my arduino is still good? Or is this some kind of problem with the chip?

Does the loopback test work? That is a critical step in the debugging process!

I'm having some of the same issues except mine works on my older ASUS but not my new one LEVENO, says it wont work on a 3.0 usb.

I got it to change from COM1 to COM3 as the older pc but still get error messages when trying to write a sketch that works fine on old ASUS.

Sorry if this post was supposed to be started in a new thread but I've never posted here before.

You will want to start your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's.
Unless you have a solution for the OP.

Thank you, I apologize for the inconvenience.
I've been in other blogs where I got told the opposite so thought it best to ask.
I will do just that.

Be Well.

didnt try it before because i didnt know of it, but it seems like that is a no. So no loopback, tryed 2 usb ports and 2 different cables, no respons when i type something in the serial monitor thing
