I'm trying to burn the bootloader to my arduino nano using a USBTinyISP.

I get the following error:

avrdude: verification error, first mismatch at byte 0x0000
         0xfd != 0x05
avrdude: verification error; content mismatch
Error while burning bootloader.

I have checked the correct board is selected in my arduino IDE.

That happens sometimes when the connections between the progrmmer and the board are not made secure, or the connection is broken momentarily during upload or when the data is read back yo check. If possible ensure you make use of an ISP header if its on the board. Also make sure nothing else is connected to the MOSI MISO or SCK lines – RSM Aug 3 '16 at 19:36
