Hello,
I have a Cyclone IV based FPGA board (LimeSDR-PCIe v1.3) I am trying to flash FPGA FW but in Quartus I always get this error. "Flash loader IP not loaded on device 1" see log below.

Hi,
Thank you for contacting Intel community.
You can try to use following solution:
- https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd01102012_443.html
2. ID:209062 Flash Loader IP not loaded on device <number>
CAUSE: You tried to program one or more serial or parallel configuration devices, using a Programmer Object File (.pof) (../../reference/glossary/def_pof.htm). However, the specified device was not configured with the Flash Loader IP.
ACTION: Make sure the Flash Loader IP is loaded on the device, and make sure the POF can communicate with the device, for example, make sure the communications cable is properly attached and the device has power.
Let me know if you need further information.
Thank you.
Regards,
Aiman

Hi Aiman,
Thank you for your reply. Itrei I have two such development boards and the issue always happens on one of those and occasionally on the other. I do the following steps for programming.
- Open programmer in Quartus.
- Select USB-Blaster in Hardware tab
- Select Auto Detect.
- Select change file and choose the corresponding myfile.jic
- New design opens up. I check both boxes on Program/Configure (For FPGA and EPCS64 flash).
- Click on Start.
- The procedure halts at 21% with the message "Flash loader IP not loaded on device 1"
With the above procedure after checking the Program/configure box a Factory default SFL file is selected to be loaded. Is there any other extra step I should do?
Following are the screen shots.

Hi,
I have the same problem with programming Cyclone 10 (10CL025Y).
I try to program a JIC file via Altera USB-Blaster. The error message "Flash Loader IP not loaded on device 1" appears. The SOF file is getting programmed well.
I generated the JIC-File with the Quartus tool "Converting Programming Files".
Has anyone an idea?
Regards
Wolfram

Please try to change the code of FPGA to the same JIC file. Then you can program the flash without problem.

Hi MarcoWu,
Thank you for your hint!
But I solved the problem yet: The FPGA was held in reset. An other error message like "FPGA in reset, no access possible" would have been very helpful ;-).
