Error (209062): Flash Loader IP not loaded on device 0

I am trying to flash my pcie385n_a7 using "aocl flash hello_world_131_pcie385n_a7.aocx" The command never completes because of the following error(s):

Info: Command: quartus_pgm -c 1 flash.cdf

Info (213045): Using programming cable "USB-Blaster [2-1.5]"

Info (209060): Started Programmer operation at Tue Feb 18 16:08:03 2014

Running "quartus_pgm -c USB-Blaster -a" gives this output:

1) USB-Blaster [2-1.5]

Unable to read device chain (JTAG chain broken)

I have checked over the usb blaster connections and they seem to correctly connected.

Am I missing something or is JTAG chain actually broken?

    I bungled connecting the break-out board to the FPGA. I have now done it properly and aocl flash works like a chram.

    Hey what do you mean by break-out board?

    Did you really have to setup the hardware again and stuff like that?

    Hi thank you for the information,

    This may not be the problem because from another PC it works fine. I am intern at a resarch center where some other student works also on the FPGA , he has no problems - but I have.

    So, any other ideas?

    Or could it still be the break-out board but somehow this error only occurs me?
