Can't finish creating NiosII project

OK. Here is my last idea:

Read the following thread: http://www.alterawiki.com/wiki/new_qsys_issues#nios_bsp_and_projects_fail_to_make_on_win7

Here is the relevant excerpt:

"Nios BSP and Projects fail to make on Win7

Issue: NIOS make files fail to run correctly under Windows 7 via Eclipse or command line. This affects the generation of BSP's and compilation of regular projects. The problem seems to be with file/directory

permissions under the cygwin environment.

Fix: Run Eclipse or the command prompt as administrator. (Right click to get context menu, select "Run as administrator".)"

Hope this helps. Good luck.
