Arduino Uno writing problem, Need help!

[Kobra]

I have wired up the atmega64 to my Arduinio Uno, and have uploaded the ArduinoISP sketch. I have successfully been able to read the chip (to back up the old firmware). But when I try to write the new firmware, I get this:

Code: Select all

avrdude.exe: AVR device initialized and ready to accept instructions

Reading | ################################################## | 100% 0.12s

avrdude.exe: Device signature = 0x1e9602
avrdude.exe: NOTE: FLASH memory has been specified, an erase cycle will be performed
             To disable this feature, specify the -D option.
avrdude.exe: erasing chip
avrdude.exe: reading input file "D:/Program Files (x86)/eePe/er9x.hex"
avrdude.exe: writing flash (57276 bytes):

Writing | 
avrdude.exe: stk500_paged_write(): (a) protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x64
avrdude.exe: stk500_cmd(): programmer is out of sync

This has left me with a blank chip, and an unusable transmitter. Can anyone explain why this isn't working?
I read somewhere that it could be an issue with autoreseting.

I'm using eePe, an Arduino Uno with the ArduinoISP sketch uploaded, and eePe is generating the following command: avrdude.exe -c avrisp -p m64 -b 19200 -P com2 -U flash:w:D:/Program Files (x86)/eePe/er9x.hex

What is your command line? Are you using eePe? Arduino? Are you using something else?

Not enough information to really help you.

Problem solved thanks to someone on Reddit. The lastest arduino IDE seems to be broken. I used an older version (0022) and it worked perfectly!

Great to hear!

Do you want to show us how so others may benefit from your experience?

I have a Duomillanove around and I will be darn curious to use it. Please share.

Thank you,
