Hey Slacker,

Thanks for the reply. No there are no spaces in the path.

Also, I do not know how I can change the path for the SOPC_builder_ip directory in the IP folder. I originally defined it when I installed the software from the complete design suite CD. The folder is presently here:

C:\Altera\80\complete_design_suite\ip\sopc_builder_ip

I think you are refering to changing my quartus project directory to a shorter path. But i think, changing the quartus project directory wouldnt help me because the compiler in Nios IDE will still want to search for the required header files it needs which are in the above folder (totally different from my quartus project directory).

I do not want to reinstall the CD again to specify a shorter path. Isn't there a way around this? :)

Thanks again.
