    Hello,

    Is your program running from flash memory?

    In that case 'run as hardware' doesn't work, you should download your program with the flashprogrammer.

    best regards,

    Most likely a hardware issue (rare for those words to come from my mouth http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif ). Debug your hardware I/O (make sure the unused I/O setting in Quartus is set appropriately for your board (Nios boards need &#39;set unused I/O to input tristate&#39;), make sure you assigned the I/O properly, make sure you meet timing, etc....)
