ok tempeku i have solved my issue, hopefully this will solve yours too. 

 

in Quartus goto Assignments -> Settings -> Device 

click Device and Pin Options 

click the Unused Pins tab 

change the reserve all unused pins field to "As input tri-stated with weak pull-up resistor" 

 

my unused pins were set to drive ground by default which caused the fpga to read the configuation prom about half the time. now it reads my sof 100% of the time.
