Hi Wombat,

Thank you for your reply, please check the below details:

OS: Win 7 32bit

Previously: Quartus2 9.1sp2 were installed and everything were running well.

Now: Quartus2 11.0 were installed in addition to the previous version (in different folder).

Result: Both QuartusII versions are not able to detect the USB Blaster (which suppose to be listed in the "Available Hardware Item" in the programmer software).

Note: Altera USB Blaster is show in the hardware manager of the Win OS with a status of "This device is working properly"

All related thread in this forum were read and tested without any success.

Dear FluxCapacitor, I have administrator privileges on the OS, however this does not solve the problem.
