I have a few 328p lieing around in my parts bin. I thought I'll see if they work.
I plugged one of them into a Uno r3 board then attached the new programmer to the icsp part aat the bottom.
After installing the driver for the programmer, I am still unable to communicate with the chip.
I even tried a known working chip that already has a bootloader which I am sure is working because of the flashing led when you apply power.
When I try programming the chip, I get the following error
I can be sure the connection is correct because it's connected using a IDC connector. And it's not the wrong way round because it doesn't power up the board when in the other orientation. I tried without the chip plugged in, the power led doesn't come on.
Also the r3 board works because the led flashes when I apply power.
I am running Windows 10 with the lastest nighly build of Arduino IDE.
The programmer is using driver WinUSb 6.1 which I installed via Zadig
So why doesn't it program ?
The programming led does appear to flash when I try programming the chip so am quessing it is communicating with the programmer.

Code:
avrdude: auto set sck period (because given equals null)
avrdude: error: program enable: target doesn't answer. 1
avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.
