Unfortunately, I can't get the Max Plus II software installer to start on my computer. Hopefully, I can find an older version of Quartus that can do what I need

What OS?

Personally I would do the following;

1. Install Virtualbox (virtual machine manager)

2. Create a virtual machine and install Windows XP SR3 (and then run Windows update ...)

3. Install MAX+Plus II

and then you should be good-to-go.

I have numerous virtual machines with various operating systems and versions of Quartus installed. Its a nice way of having old tools available when you need them. The VM images can live on a USB hard-drive, so there is no wasting space on your development laptop.
