    may be because of improper assignments. better go to assignment and remove all the assignments made. restart quartus and try to run the application again. it may help to solve your problem

    did you solve it? I&#39;ve the same problem.

    What do you mean with "assignment"?

    I have to recompile quartus project?

    I&#39;ve been having this same problem too. I get the error message:

    Using cable "ByteBlasterMV [LPT1]", device 1, instance 0x01

    Pausing target processor: not responding.

    Resetting and trying again: FAILED

    Leaving target processor paused

    I can program my .sof to the board no problem, I can compile my C application too, but when i go to run the C code on the processor I get that error message. I can&#39;t even use the flash programmmer to program the flash memory either, I get an error along the same lines as the one above.

    If anybody has any ideas i&#39;d greatly appreciate them.
