After months of good use, both my boards Mega 2560 and Uno became unavailable for uploading sketch or burning bootloader.

Sketch uses 444 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

         System wide configuration file is "C:[...]\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino9/etc/avrdude.conf"

         Using Port                    : COM5
         Using Programmer              : stk500v1
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x03
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x03

Facts :

  • v1.6.20 of the boards
  • v1.8.5 of the IDE
  • Windows 8.1 64bits
  • Programmer: "AVR ISP"
  • Drivers are fine (the boards are well recognized)
  • Serial monitor works
  • I'm trying to upload the "Bare minimum" exemple sketch
  • Nothing in pin 0 and 1, nothing at all is plugged actually
  • Get Board info:
  • Uno : VID 2A03
  • Mega2560 : VID 2A03
  • From instructions here, every instruction is "echoed back"

What i tried :

Nothing works. If you have any idea.....

Thank you all !

It eventually worked by using upload / ctrl+U (what I didn't try... smh) instead of upload using programmer / ctrl+shift+U.

So i know now where it comes from, though I don't know what's wrong with AVR ISP.
