8 years agoI was able to install the drivers. You first have to disable driver signature enforcement. This is the sequence:
1 - Go to windows 10 settings and search for "advanced startup options" 2 - Under Advanced startup, hit "Restart now" 3 - After a moment, you'll get a "choose an option" screen - choose "Troubleshoot", then "Advanced options", then "Startup Settings" 4 - You'll get a screen telling you what you will be able to change and a single "Restart" button - press it. 5 - If your boot drive is BitLocker encrypted, you'll need to enter the recovery key (press return, enter the key in the text box then hit return again - it took me three goes to realize I had to hit return before I could enter they key !) 6 - You'll be given a menu of options, number 7 disables driver signature enforcement 7 - When the PC restarts, use Device manager to update the drivers - this time you'll get a warning about the signature, but they install fine. 8 - When you've finished, restart normally to re-enable signature enforcementPowersOf12

5 years agoExcellent instructions. First my new Eval kit didn't blink lights on first power up like it was supposed to, then the first run of Quartus Lite V20 required Admin permission (Run as Administrator), then the driver was not signed and this helped. What a mess trying to get a demo going on my latest Win 10 with their latest software but I now have blinky lights (on to real code).
