missed this dialogue List of required items  Arrow Electronics BeMicro SDK FPGA-based MCU Evaluation Board  Design Software (Quartus® II design software v11.1., Nios® II EDS 11.1, Micrium uC/Probe)  Intel Pentium III or compatible Windows PC, running at 866MHz or faster, with a minimum of 512MB of system memory. note regarding lab supported operating systems: 32 bit versions of windows xp, windows vista and windows 7 are supported by software tools required for this lab. no 64 bit versions are supported  Lab Design Files  Please note that version 11.0 will work as well, but certain diagrams in this document may not match Item One Step one Downloaded Quartus II web edition. Got account setup and then downloaded it. Step two Altera Installer Setup. Run the Altera Installer and Navigate to the installer setup page. Select the download installation files from the internet radio button (does not say as Administrator so I did not. I am in the process of reinstalling to try that.) Downloaded files from the internet. My setup did not list full version just web edition and NIOS2 design tools Step 3 Extracted the Lab. Actually that was Pre step 3 as the instructions are in the lab... but it was already done with no spaces in it etc. Item 2 Driver installation. Step one. Plug in BeMicro-SDK. Step two. Look under devices and printers because it needs trouble shooting before I can install drivers manually. Step three. Run troubleshooting program and have it inform me I need drivers. Step 4. Open device manager select USB blaster under unknown hardware. I believe it said update driver maybe was install driver. Click it. Step 5. Tell driver install I need to install from a specific location, navigate to the drivers folder, USB-Blaster install from there. Click finish Item 3 Step 1 verify device displays in USB controllers rather then unknown. It was in USB controllers. Name was Altera USB-Blaster. Item 4 Step 1 Find jtagServer.exe, run command as you typed it but added .exe to it otherwise it won't run under windows command shell. Result Failure. As I just unistalled QUartus I can not double check my result but it was posted a few pages back and will edit this with my previous result.

Look though a huge list paying attention to right column where it said listen port 1309 is shown with listen. Step 2 stop service. Task manager, Services tab, Jtagserver right click and click on stop. Step 3 Netstat command as step one. Look at list as in step one check items with listen in right column for 1309. 1309 does not exist this time. Step 4 Task man, services, jtagserver, right click and click start. Step 5 repeat Netstat as in 1 and 3, Look at list for listening ports as in 1 and 3, Find 1309 as in 1.
