    These are two different file formats. Changing the extension won't work. See the DE2 documentation for the procedure used to flash a configuration to the board.

    Hi sir

    I didn't get you ?

    I have .qpf file extension.

    I already read the de2 user manual. I don't know how to make .pof from .qpf

    If I get .pof then I know how to run with de2 board.

    Plz help me

    Converting an SOF file to a POF is described in the Quartus II documentation. You use "File -> Convert Programming Files".
