i'm not sure why your CFG DONE LED did not light up, but i don't think its related to the USB Blaster issue.

yes, you will need to install USB Blaster drivers even for embedded (on board) USB Blasters.

i don't think the QuickUSB is right, i recommend you uninstall this device driver, then reconnect the USB Blaster and point it to the driver in: c:\altera\9.1sp2\quartus\drivers\usb-blaster, or similar. to uninstall the device right click on My Computer, go to Properties, Hardware, Device Manager. open up the USB section, right click on the QuickUSB, and choose Uninstall.
