Hi, I'm a complete novice, have just received my Geetech i3 clone with mega 2560 board. First problem I have encountered is the endstops do nothing. I guess I have to flash the firmware somehow, but havnt got a clue how to go about it. Any help greatly appreciated.
I have found out how to upload it now, but get this error at end. "Arduino: 1.8.0 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)"
