From an old post:

--- Quote Start ---

Quartus 13.1 is the last version that will run on Windows XP 32b and Windows 7 32b (and it will run on Windows 7 64b also).

Quartus 14.0 and later require Windows 7 64b (not 32b) and later (Windows 8.1).

Quartus 16.0 is the first version that will run on Windows 10 64b (also will run on Windows 7/8.1 64b).

So if you have to run on WinXP 32b you will need to download the 13.1 version of Quartus. Or else upgrade to Windows 7 64b (or 8.1 64b).

You ~really~ need to find some new s/w folks if they are still stuck at WinXP ...
