fpga is getting heated unusually

Which of the following states reflects what's in the FPGA's boot FLASH?

a) Factory image.

b) A user image - something you've already programmed in.

c) It's empty - as a result of you consciously erasing it.

Based on the above if it's:

a) You probably have some damage to the board

b) It could well be your FPGA design that is resulting in contention and too much current being drawn

c) Very similar to a)

Is it this board: cyclone iii fpga starter kit (http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/altera/kit-cyc3-starter.html) ?

If not let me know which one you are referring to. Also, identify exactly which jumpers are fitted.
