using control panel 2.0.1, I get the following message:

Hi there,

Are you also running DE1 control panel 2.0.1 in Windows 7 64-bit ? Have you tried the latest version 2.1 from our website de1.terasic.com ?

What's worth trying is you can program the FPGA manually and launch DE1 control panel to see if the connection is established successfully.
