Good morning Nooraini,

This morning I started the programming process from scratch. I verified that the MT25QU was selected as the target device in Quartus and that I was using Active Serial. In the file conversion program I set all the parameters from scratch instead of loading my .cof file. I generated the .jic and programmed the target board. When I power cycled the board the FGPA loaded correctly.

I then went back into the file conversion program and loaded my .cof file. Here my .cof file was selecting a .sof from an old version of the design that was Cyclone V based. Once I changed this to the A10 .sof file it also generated a .jic file that loaded on power-up..

I think Intel needs to put a check in the file conversion utility that makes sure the .sof file selected matches the target device.
