Hello,

Can I know more details about your design and what is the exact error that you receive? Which device are you using and what is its OPN?

    Many thanks for the reply. It took me a while to research what OPN might be.

    I'm not sure how relevant this is but it's a 5CEBA2F23C8

    And I'm using Quartus Prime Version 18.1.0 Lite Edition

    I would have moved onto 20.1 but it is very broken when it comes to NIOS.

    I thought I would reinstate the original conditions as far as I could and recompile to clarify the error. I don't know what has happened but the design synthesises and fits without error. If it recurs I will post here with some more details.
