12 years ago --- Quote Start --- Thanks! I think I will buy a new programmer :-) --- Quote End --- Buy the Terasic USB-Blaster, its significantly cheaper than Altera's version. http://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?language=english&categoryno=74 If you must have an Altera version, then buy a development kit that includes the programmer. For example, I recently replaced a MAX II PCI kit that I'd managed to damage. http://www.digikey.com/scripts/dksearch/dksus.dll?vendor=0&keywords=dk-maxii-1270n The kit is ~$160 and includes an Altera USB-Blaster. A USB-Blaster by itself is $300 ... http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/pl-usb-blaster-rcn/544-1775-nd/1212940 go figure ... Cheers, Dave
