There's another 2x3 header next to the USB jack. This is the 2x3 male header located between the ATmega2560 chip and the reset button: The bootloader is installed using the ICSP header. Thank you very much and I'm sorry for my bad English, I understood that there is a way to do this if I have another Arduino and actually I do have another Arduino Uno (that works fine with my computer) so can anybody tell firstly if my thinking is correct and secondly what is the method of programing my Mega2560 via my Uno? If it is correct then the only answer left is - how can I program it if I can't establish a connection to my IDE? If so, then it means that all I need to do in order to restore the communication is to reprogram the boolloader code, is that correct? So why windows doesn't recognize it? I thought maybe it because the Bootloader has been earased/deleted and therefore the a connection between the Arduino and the computer can't be established. So I conclude from that that the board itself is basicly working. The "only" thing that happens is that the 2 leds on the board lights up (one flashing and one is simply ON).įrom my understanding, the fact that the L led is flashing means that there is a program in the microcontroller memory that runs and makes the led flash. I got a new Arduino Mega 2560, When I connected it to my computer running Windows 10 - nothing seem to happen: not in device manager (not as unknown device and not as a COM port), not any kind of alert from windows and not even a sound. I've searched the forum for solutions before posting this but didn't find anything that was helpful to me, If I've missed something please just put the link.
