Data in HEX File overlaps between data blocks at address 8 and address 0

I am using Quartus Prime 17.0.2

When to generate a JIC file, I am able to add an SOF file with out issue, but I get an error when doing the same for HEX.

The existing forum posts on this subject refer to memory files but I have not been able to locate that in my settings menu. Any assistance would be greatly appreciat

    Thanks for the suggestion. It seems the issue has to do with the reset vectors.

    My issue is that my current configuration is a bit unusual. We have implemented our EPCQ controller outside of Qsys/Platform Designer because the version of Quartus we are using (17.0.2) is incompatible with the EPCQ device we have. To solve this work around we implemented a v19 EPCQ controller in our top level design rather than inside Qsys. This works but presents an issue given the Embedded User Guide. Any thoughts on how to accommodate this?

    Sorry i dont get it. How does the reset vectors affecting with EPCQ controller in platform designer? can you please clarify? So with the EPCQ controller outside of platform designer, it works? or the another way round?
