USB Blaster does not work on Quartus II

[Altera_Forum]

Hello,  

 I installed the driver correctly from the altera installation folder and on the device manager everything is ok (Win XP 32bit). If I run the Programmer on Quartus II 10.0 there is no USB Blaster. If I press "Add Hardware" following error occurs:  attempted to access jtag server -- internal error code 82 occurred Than I tried following: Manually restart the JTAG Server service by locating the jtagserver.exe program and at a command prompt for that directory, type jtagserver --install <Enter> And I got this in the command prompt: error 1073 installing service  On a other Computer the USB Blaster works fine (Quartus II 9.1). I reinstalled Quartus II but without any success.  What can I do?  Thanks!  EDIT: I naturally deactivated the firewall

You don't have to disable the whole firewall. You can add a firewall rule to accept incoming connections on port 1309 from 127.0.0.1 (secure) or from anywhere (not too secure, but allows for remote access).
