Hello.
I have had a problem to connect my Arduino Duemilanove for over a year now. I first discovered my problem when I tried to upload a simple code to it and got this error:
avrdude stk500_getsync() not in sync resp=0x00
It seems that my Arduino does not communicate with my PC. In the device manager it appears as just an COM-port and does not display the name. I tried to connect it to
3 different computers, but got the same result. After a lot of research on the internet for solutions which didn't solve my problem, I decided to buy an UNO and a new
USB AB cabel. When I connected my UNO it did not appear at all in the Device manager. I have tried both Arduino boards on different computers and cables without
any luck.
If anyone could help me with this frustrating problem I would be very grateful
Thanks.
