Hello,
After an attempt by Mobiflight Connector to flash to my MEGA 2560 board, it gave the message after some time:
There was an error on uploading the firmware for the board(s): Defauld (COM 10)
The log text:

I found the following solution in this forum:
"
Basic Workflow.
If Mega make trouble a good idea is a Reset of the Board.
Use the EEPROM Clear sketch via Arduino IDE to completely delete the Memory.... Then the Board is like brand new and you can flash firmware again and test.
Mostly this solve a lot of problems."
However, in the Arduino IDE I also get an error after doing this procedure.
"Sketch uses 1374 bytes (0%) of program storage space. Maximum is 253952 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 8183 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.

I can't do anything at all now.... Please help!. Or should I throw away my board and buy a new one......
