If you were loading a .pof, then you were not programming the Stratix II, but its configuration device. If the configuration device has a corrupted file, then the FPGA should detect this, and simply not configure, i.e., assert nSTATUS to indicate a bad programming file.

Use JTAG to load a .sof into the FPGA, and then program the .pof into the external configuration device.
