Hi Dave,

I'm using Cyclone IV Transceiver Starter Kit and I got a same problem.

I tried FT_Prog with your FT245B configutation but it fails with message "The current drawn from the USB port must be in the range 0 to 500 mAmps."

This board uses FT245BL with external EEPROM (AT93C46DN-SH-B).

Can you help me?

Thanks.
