Problem with Quartus II 11.0 Programmer detecting Altera Cyclone II DE2 Dev Kit

After tools -> programmer the Programmer these show up like in the attached image.

For hardware type, there is none other then ethernet blaster; and auto detect didn't work.

Basically the Dev Kit does not want to be recognised by Quartus II v11.0

If any, these are observed and done:

  • Board is powered on

  • Tested when switch is at RUN and PROG

  • Restarted program

  • Restarted computer

  • USB is connected from USB BLASTERt port of the board to the computer

And the USB Blaster driver had been searched and located for instalallation and installed from this path:

C:\altera\11.0\quartus\drivers

Only seemed to be able to installed that way, and when earlier tried these methods to install but they didn't work:

Just to note, I am using Intel Core i3 Windows 7 32-bit

Any help will do.

Thank you!
