Hi, have a look at http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40972&p=169462#post169462

You need "Stand Alone Quartus Programmer" which takes nearly 1Go of installation : no way to minimize

You need to copy a few files from Nios2 programmer and change the PATH variable

You don't need to have "unix environment", it works in Windows cmd terminal.

I will post my working note on the link above.
