"no install.ptf..."why sopc builder is confused

when I using the sopc builder to construct my nios system,it reported like this

//=====================================================

Altera SOPC Builder Version 4.10 Build 181

# 2004.12.19 10:50:54 (*) mk_custom_sdk starting

no install.ptf file found at D:/altera/quartus41/sopc_builder/bin/europa/europa_utils.pm line 1700.

Error in processing. System NOT successfully generated.

//====================================================

As you can see,the quartusII version is 4.1 ,and the niosii is 1.01.I also had tryed the quartusII4.2 and niosII 1.1,but it's report the same.In addition to this,in nios sdk shell ,when I using the prompt "mk_target_board ",it also showed this "no install.ptf ....."

How can I do ?

    >> hi, the install.ptf file is typically located in:

    >>c:\documents and settings\<username>\.sopc_builder

    On my c-disc the .sopc_builder folder was installed directly under C. I simply moved it to &#39;documents and settings&#39; folder.

    This question is also discussed under a question posted by user &#39;rleitner&#39; at this forum.
