I really wonder what the problem of the USB blaster with some versions of Windows is!!!!I have tried several versions of windows including 32 and 64 bit ones and I have problem programming the FPGA using USB blaster. 

Its driver cannot be installed. Altera experts havent really suggested anything in order to solve the problem?!!!!Cause I have seen a lotta people facing the problem of USB blaster. 

Thanks in advance

The USB-Blaster documentation tells you how to install the drivers under Windows and Linux. 

 

If you are unable to install the drivers after following this documentation then please post a more detailled report, including the versions of software and of windows you are having problems with. Experts (altera and otherwise) will be able to help you if you post a report which explains exactly what isn't working.
