    Are you sure your Flash Controller is running and configured correct in SOPC Builder?

    Did you change bsp settings accordingly (linker script tab)?

    Did you test your flash memory with the memtest application (nios project template), did it pass?

    In the SOPC builder , is the reset vector of your CPU set to the external Flash (e.g. cfi_flash)?

    When I checked the upper points, I could load the .elf file and run the App. It also restarted after a Reset. (Key[0] in my case)

    is the nios version 9.1?

    if it is, that's the problem i found.

    Just use the 9.0, 9.0 is OK.
