Altera® on-line troubleshooters are easy-to-use interactive tools that help you troubleshoot and solve common technical issues. To learn more about troubleshooters, please select a topic:


Change Your Answer

You will see a "Question and Answer History" at the bottom of each screen throughout the troubleshooter. To change an answer, click on the question in the history. The troubleshooter will take you back to the question you selected. (You don't have to use the Back button in your browser.) Change your answer, then proceed through the troubleshooter on the new path.

Click on E-mail This Page on the top right hand corner of the troubleshooter from the point where you want to e-mail the session. Fill out the form and click Send.

File a mySupport Service Request with Altera Technical Support

If the troubleshooter is unable to solve your problem, you may submit a service request to mySupport. Click on the Contact Support link at any point during your session. You will be prompted to sign into your altera.com account before you submit your service request. When submitting the request, please refer to the code on the right hand side of the troubleshooter screen.
