I using the Altera cyclone III EPC3C120 Development board connected by HSMC interfaces to Bitec HSMC quad video and DVI daughtercards.

The kit refers to AN 427 VIP sample design and asks it to download from the ALTERA site.

The name of the file is vip_example_design_3c120_<version>.But I cannot find this file on the website of Altera to start with the kit.

I tried to run the sample code but i got these errors.

Error: Top-level design entity "top" is undefined

Error: Quartus II Analysis & Synthesis was unsuccessful. 1 error, 0 warnings

Error: Peak virtual memory: 220 megabytes

Error: Processing ended: Mon Feb 21 12:17:30 2011

Error: Elapsed time: 00:00:01

Error: Total CPU time (on all processors): 00:00:01

I am now running the project but when i am trying to open the files in the Nios 2 environment by creating a project and a .bsp file I get this error.

Failed to execute: ./create-this-app --no-make

chmod: changing permissions of `.': Permission denied

chmod: changing permissions of `./create-this-app': Permission denied

can you tell me why?

Try running the tools as administrator. (Right clock the icon or start menu item and choose "Run as administrator".

For some versions of the Altera tools, the installer did not set the permissions correctly on all the required files. I think they finally fixed it in 10.1.
