7 years agoEnabling Quartus II 12.0 SP2 64 bit version (Web Edition) w/ Windows 10 64 bit OS
I have installed quartus ii 12.0 sp2 web edition. I am running Windows 10 64 bit Pro OS.
From what I understand, I need to compile the vhd files in Quartus II in 64 bit mode to properly operate my EP2C35F672C6 board of the Cyclone II family. However, when I installed Quartus II, I only have the option to run it in 32 bit mode. At school, I have the option of both 32 and 64 bit modes when I search for it after pressing the windows key. My instructor has told me to only use 64 bit mode to avoid issues when implementing my hardware. Is there a way to go about installing or enabling 64 bit mode? I was never given the option to download either 32/64. It was a single package, so I assumed that it would come with both. Also, I intend on installing the free edition of ModelSim 10.0d. Will I encounter a similar issue? I have not been able to find ample information on this specific topic elsewhere. I would greatly appreciate any feedback as I would love to be able to work on my projects at home. Thank you!
