I recently bought an Arduino Uno and installed everything necessary. I tried it on both USB ports on my computer. However, the Ports menu only shows COM1. There is a line on the bottom of the IDE which says Arduino Uno on COM1.
Any program I try fails to upload to the board. When I tried the Blink example, the following error message appeared:
Arduino: 1.6.3 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino Uno"
Sketch uses 1,030 bytes (3%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32,256 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2,039 bytes for
local variables. Maximum is 2,048 bytes.

and so on. Until,
This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation" enabled in File > Preferences.
I have a Windows 7 64 bit desktop.
Any help will be appreciated.
