Some computers do silly things with the com port number the arduino connects to. Try the different com ports the program offers as options.

i installed the drivers for the board that you posted. still the error message, How do i check that board at com1 not availible thing?

go to "tools" then "port" and choose the one with the arduino

you do need the drivers installed and you need to restart your pc ( also is the arduino advertised to have the bootloader installed ? )

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

"Like" comments to show your support of them or the idea they express.
