A problem with Quartus Programmer v10.0

Anybody understand this error code???

Internal Error: Sub-system: PGMWQ, File: /quartus/pgm/pgmwq/pgmwq_device_dlg.cpp, Line: 343

Invalid Initial family

Stack Trace:

0x5aaea: pgmwq_select_hardware_and_close + 0x8baa (pgm_pgmwq)

0x635d0: pgmwq_select_hardware_and_close + 0x11690 (pgm_pgmwq)

0x276c35: QWindowsXPStyle::styleHint + 0x2d5 (QtGui4)

End-trace

I was trying to change the frequency properties of an EEPROM device, but this message came up and the program stopped.

    usually there isn't enough information in the trace to gather any useful information. though yours does say Invalid Initial family

    can you provide steps to reproduce this and/or file an SR?

    it still shouldn't have an Internal Error, so file an SR if you can
