Is that the correct com port selected? Is the correct Board selected? Is the cable plugged in right?

Does the controller reboot a few seconds after you hit upload?

If you tried the correct port and board and still doesn't work, it would be either the board or the cable.
Did the original owner say that it was working?
If you want, you can send it for analysis.

He gave me your number he was a cop and you went on his computer and fixed it. He has a code already loaded on.
