Bought on Amazon

Other Recent buyers said IDE recognized.  Others said they had to use  the current standard "ATMega328P" Processor selection under the tools menu, rather than the "ATMega328P (Old Bootloader)"

The Nano versions I get are the RP2040 or 33 BLE..and they dont work.

@gtmize Choosing an old processor is fairly common for NANO clones, I have a few of them. I had not heard of that happening with the very new RP2040 or the 33 BLE.

BTW, Amazon links don't work, get a URL shortener, Amazon has a good one.

It's hard to know what you're talking about since we can't see the devices you're specifying, but the Arduino RP2040 and BLE models are not based on ATMega328P chips, so they'll never work if you select ATMega328P with or without the old boot loader ?

 

Anything seems possible when you don't know what you're talking about.

@gtmize What exact board are you using, and what board are you selecting in the drop down. the 2040 has numerous entries, one right a bunch wrong.

@gtmize You need to post the Amazon link again in a way that works. I use a URL shorter. If the board is a clone, then you may need to change the processor.

This is a different problem than what you first had.
