Qsys Hangs When Adding Module

Hi,

I have just found out that Qsys also hangs when I was trying to open a system (i.e. soc_system.qsys) as well.

Can I ask you if something is missing on my system ?? am I missing a license or something ?? Or at least, what can I do to find out the root cause and how to fix or work-around this issue ??

Thanks,

TH

Hello th_altera_forum,

In these kind of questions additional info (Operating system / Quartus version can be of use)

Did you install the Quartus / Qsys version from the cd in the box or did you install the latest version downloaded from the altera web site ?

Q17 runs stable on my system. (Win7)

You might consider trying to open or compile a tutorial to see if the problem comes from your application or from the system code.

Best Regards,

Johi.

Hi Johi,

Thank you for your reply.

I installed Quartus (Quartus Prime 17.0) Standard Edition from the lastest version downloaded from the Altera website.

Because when I bought the kit, it said in the welcome letter that "Note that CDs and DVDs are not included with this kit...". Is there a difference between the DVD versus the web-install ??

Currently, Q17 is running on my Windows 10 Home Edition. So, do you think this could be the issue ??

And yes, I was trying to follow a tutorial when I first found out the issue. So, is it due to the system code then ?? If so, does it mean that I have to get the DVD and/or switch to Win7 (i.e. Home or Pro) ??

Thanks,

TH

Hello th_altera_forum

I worked for months with version 16, it did not hang once.

A few days ago I installed Q17.

Today Q17 hung 2 times during download of FPGA and 2 times with Qsys.

If this continues I go back to 16.0 or 16.1.

Best Regards,

Johi.

Hi Johi,

I have just found out that I had to use "Quartus II 15.0 Web Edition" for my Cyclone V SoC Development Kit. It works now.

Thanks,

Have a nice day,
