I'm trying to upload a simple sketch to my Uno board but get this error message: avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding (full error message at the end).

I have other Uno boards who work fine so I guess it is something to do specifically with this board (which used to work) and not my system or cables (port,drivers,settings etc..).

I did a loop-back test (http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=73748.0) on the board and it worked fine.

I read about possible solutions but nothing seems to solve this. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19765037/arduino-sketch-upload-issue-avrdude-stk500-recv-programmer-is-not-respondi

I also tried using an Arduino as an AVR ISP but it failed. (https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP)

Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.
