I've got to wonder why the Chirp website hasn't been updated to, at least, use one of the latest builds as "the" official build. Time and again we see users here on the latest official build having problems.

Terry,

Go back to the latest daily build as fast as you can. No Baofeng radio
owner should be using the 17 month old CHIRP v0.4.1 stable build
unless the only radio they have is the UV-3R or BF-888s (or close
variant).

Your problem is you are selecting the wrong radio model. Based on the
firmware version, your radio has 3 power levels (1/4/8 watts) so you
must choose the BF-F8HP model.
