Not an answer but another question...
How can I get an erased .pof file for an EPM7032SLC44 device? I bought a bunch of surplus 7032SLC devices that have had their JTAG pins programmed as I/O so they can't be programmed via JTAG Thanks in advance. - Altera_Forum

You should erase these devices with help of a device programmer that is able to erase a device with parallel algorithm instead of JTAG algorithm. After such an action JTAG engine will be operative again.

Thanks, that's the tough part. The company that has the programming hardware wants a .pof file that they can use to program the devices. Erasing doesn't seem to be an option?
I'm confused. - Altera_Forum

You do not need a pof file for erase action, because a pof file contains configuration bits necessary for programming only. I am absolutely sure about this. You should explain to the company with a device programmer you need just device erasing.
