I have gone over the instillation of the Arduino IDE . I have tried a few different Revs. Currently 1.8.15. Wind 10 Pro 64 bit. USBtiny shows up in devicemanager,
Programmer: USBtinyISP
Here is the error message.
Arduino: 1.8.15 (Windows 10), Board: "Adafruit Gemma (ATtiny85 @ 8MHz)"
Sketch uses 696 bytes (13%) of program storage space. Maximum is 5310 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes of dynamic memory.
avrdude: error: usbtiny_transmit: libusb0-dll:err [control_msg] sending control message failed, win error: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.
avrdude: error: usbtiny_transmit: libusb0-dll:err [control_msg] sending control message failed, win error: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
the selected serial port
does not exist or your board is not connected
This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.
Any help would be great.

Re: Gemma Talking toy guts, device not seen Error in IDE
The original Gemma and Trinket boards don't work well with modern USB implementations. From https://www.adafruit.com/product/1222:

As it says, consider upgrading to a GemmaM0.Deprecation Warning: The Gemma bit-bang USB technique it uses doesn't work as well as it did in 2014, many modern computers won't work well. So while we still carry the Gemma so that people can maintain some older projects, we no longer recommend it. Please check out the Gemma M0. It has built-in USB, more capabilities, and is comparable in price!
