New ContributorAltera USB Blaster Drivers / software for windows 2000NT
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me.
I work at a manufacturing company for PCBAs which often involves testing and programming completed units to customer demands.
I have assumed responsibility for an archaic system/product which is ran on windows 2000NT.
The above PC has somehow lost a lot of drivers - The test is run on Gopel Cascon, which then calls for Altera Quartus prime II 6.1 to program the PCBA at the end of test.
from what information I have managed to gather I have two options: find the drivers that I need for the USB blaster (which I have tried and no success) or reinstall the Quartus prime software.
I have already noted that there have been responses on similar requests suggesting I must raise support tickets, however my support ticket has pointed me back here.
If anyone could give me some assistance I would greatly appreciate.
Hi Aiman,
Unfortunately I had already seen this page and this doesn't contain the drivers for USB blaster at all (unless it has a different name on this page).I understand there's little the community can do but the direct support keeps pointing me back here.
anyway - My colleague had found a solution on stackexchange - he had gone into regeddit and made changes following sinstructions found here:
