Well...I tried it with both arduinos last night and earlier today. It didn't upload on either one. I checked all the solder points and there's nothing wrong or shorted out as far as I can tell.
When I switched to the Arduino w/ the atmega, it switched my com port to com7 from com6 but it was on the same USB port as the Uno R3. I think I may just be confused as to how coms are assigned. It also paused for a long time twice before it went into the retry count. When it paused there I started freaking out thinking that it was working but then after awhile it just gave me the same error.
Tonight I'm going to hook it up to my htpc and see if it will work from there.
