I'm stuck with my electronics

I'm trying to setup my RAMPS board but I'm having some trouble

Running the RAMPSTestCode from here give's this error:
avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer

When I look at the serial console i get this over and over again:

echo:enqueing "G0 E10 F3000"
echo:enqueing "T1"
echo:Active Extruder: 1
ok
echo:enqueing "G0 E0 F3000"
echo:enqueing "G90"
ok
echo:enqueing "G0 X10 F3000"
echo:enqueing "G0 Y10 F3000"
echo:enqueing "G0 Z2 F3000"
echo:enqueing "T0"
echo:Active Extruder: 0
ok

and looks like this:

Not had that one before myself, but I would be suspect of the cord. I have seen a lot of people, including myself, getting crappy USB cables. Also look for anything that might be near by emitting EMF and introducing noise onto the cord. The best USB cord in the world won't hold up to a florescent light transformer laying to it.

I use only shielded USB cables do two related issues. I would recommend switching all you cables over

Turns out my cable and everything was fine. I was somehow able to flash the board with a basic LED blink program and then was able to flash it with Marlin

Thanks for the help!
