I am very new to arduino and I recently bought a Nano, and when I try uploading the code, it throws this error:

`Arduino: 1.8.13 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Nano, ATmega328P (Old Bootloader)"

Sketch uses 924 bytes (3%) of program storage space. Maximum is 30720 bytes.

Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

Problem uploading to board.  See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.



This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

I have tried changing the programmer, changing the processor to the old bootloader; all of the standard stuff. Nothing has worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Could we see your code? Also, are you using any other app that could be messing with your COM ports (Processing, for example - using serial)? – Rojo Jan 15 '21 at 18:48

    It is just the basic blink sketch, and I don't think anything is messing with the COM ports – Krypton 200 Jan 15 '21 at 18:51

I recently had the same issue with IDE 2.0.3 and had to go to tools/Processor/ATmega328P (Old Bootloader).

This changed the bitrate from 115200 to 57600 and allowed the nano to be programmed.

Test other ports, and other USB cable. If you buy this nano from China, maybe it has CH3040 usb driver (this is a cheap chinese usb communication chip). If that's true, download this driver, without that isn't work chinese nano.

Good luck!

  • I bought the nano from thePiHut, so I’m not sure if I still need the driver, but I did try to install it and it says it already is – Krypton 200 Jan 15 '21 at 23:02

Arduino Nano Uses the CH340G driver unlike the CP2102 used in UNO so you need to install the correct drivers and check inside drivers section for the COM port . If you have already burnt the new bootloader it wont cause any upload issues

As a last resort you can use Arduino as ISP to program your NAno please check out this article
