Hi there Peet_2,

Yes, I can now see the device from flash programmer, however using the debug still doesn't connect. I have the Altera rep coming in some point next week I hope (just waiting for confirmation) But I think I may do a complete re-install to just see if I missed anything first time around.

I used NIOS 8 before without error (windows XP), but when I changed to windows 7 NIOS 8 is incompatible, so I have gone to 9, which is now where I have trouble, If only I could find a way of just inject the sof file & flash the device in one foul swoop without using NIOS, ie like injecting a hex file directly into a MCU - life would be easier :)

Thanks for the continued help.

Cheers,
