Hi Snowfox! 

 I&#39;ve got the same problem with ep1c6 and epcs4. Although, I had no problem at all with ep1c12 with epcs4. Everything is under nios 5.1  Have you solved the problem?

I had the same problem when I received my target board and it turned out to be a cold solder on the EPCS device on my board. So I would assume your EPCS device is either not working or not connected properly to you FPGA.
