Hi,


Apologize for missing out your case. Please note that this case has been escalated to me.


May I know what is the FPGA and the Quartus version that was used?

Have you try to re-install the USB Blaster ii driver again?

Nur

Hi Nur,

Our products use wide variety of Cyclone Family. This issue happened on Cyclone III and Cyclone IV. I have not test on Cyclone 10LP. Currently I am using Quartus 17.1 to support Cyclone IV and newer and Quartus 12.1 for Cyclone III or older.

I am pretty sure the USB Blaster II driver was installed under Quartus 17.1 subfolder driver.

I have not try to re-install the USB Blaster II driver. Does Intel acknowledge this issue before and release a driver fix onto it?

We need to get this fix and we bought 20 of this USB Blaster II for our upgrade and now this is a big issue that stop our production upgrade.

Thanks
Gan
