I am unable to program an MT25QL128 flash with the programmer-I get the error "Flash Loader IP not loaded on device 1". What's the problem?

I'm able to program the device from the command line: "quartus_pgm.exe -c Usb-Blasterii -m jtag -o ipv;arrinx.jic".

Which way SHOULD it be done? Programming both the FPGA AND the flash? Why would that even matter? I don't download anything to the FPGA when I use the command line, and that works.

The way I understand it, when you program the JIC file, the programmer downloads a flash loader to the FPGA which handles the interface to the flash. Here's a screen shot.
