USB Blaster EEPROM Program for Cyclone IV Dev Kit

Hi,

I have accidentally erased the EEPROM on my CycloneIV development kit and now the computer sees the USB Blaster as USB Serial interface. I tried to reprogram by using FTDI - FT prog and usb_blaster_BLASTR01.xml file from the forum. When I tried to program, FTDI program gives two errors.

First one: The current drawn from the USB port must be in the range 0 to 500mAmps.

Second one: The maximum number of characters for the Manufacturer, Product Description and Serial Number is 46.

It seems this XML code worked for DE1 users and I don't understand why it does not work with my board. Here is the XML code that I used:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
