error writing fuses, error reading fuses.... Atmega328P

i am using Atmega328P and i was trying to enable the PC6 pin which is set as reset by default...
And i am Using AVRDUDE GUI Burn-O-Mat v2 for this..
when i did it the first time it showed writing fuses successful but after that i tried to read fuses but it shows error...
tried to reset it... still error...

i checked with another atmega328P to read its fuses and it was successful..

can anyone help me in resetting fuses as without the reset pin i cant burn anything on to the chip... and its of no use...


The error shown is...

avrdude.exe done. Thank you.

Unfortunately you have managed to brick the mcu with a way that only parallel programming can fix.
with no reset pin you can't use ISP programming mode so you need to use a device like **broken link removed**
or a parallel programmer like the one shown in the end of .

okey....


anyways a great learning experience i guess....;


Thanx Guys....)
