 I'm using the Arduino 1.5.7 build, but I'm not sure if that matters.
 
 1. In the Arduino IDE, under Tools, set your settings to:
-
+```
     Board: Arduino Nano<br>
     Processor: ATMega328<br>
     Programmers: AVRISP mk2 (yours may differ)
+```
+2. Under `File`/`Preferences`, turn on verbose output during compilation.

 5. Connect your programmer and power up the unit.  If you're using the AVRISP mk2, the stripe should be on the bottom.
 
 6. Download and open up Atmel Studio.  I'm using 6.2.  I'm sure that any version after 6.2 will work.
