Hi,everyone.It is Puzzle me that my Byteblaster is working now,after I installed the USB-Blaster's driver.

I use a PCIe parallel port card but at the beginning Quartus programmer can not detect the LPT port and clue to "kernel mode driver not install",then I red lots of help in Altera Forum,but those all no help.So I bought another USB-Blaster cable,when I start the Quartus'Programmer I find the byterblaster MV(LPT1) is detected.Now Both Byteblaster2 and USB-Blaster are working good.

The Quartus is really a mess, big and bugs. I also have trouble to make the Byteblaster cable work under WIN7. And the help is not helping. Time wasting.
