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. https://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.

avrdude done. Thank you.
Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

In Arduino IDE check that
- correct port number is selected in Tools -> Port
- correct programmer is selected in Tools -> Programmer (should be AVRISP mkII if you upload the code via USB cable)
- correct board is selected in Tools -> Board (Arduino/Genuino Uno)
If above doesn't help, install the latest version of Arduino IDE.
Try the different boards in the menu. I had that with one of my boards and then it worked fine when I used the Due in the IDE instead. Something to do with one of the chip revisions I think.
