No reports generated and can't assign pins in Quartus II

To check if the HP print spool drivers were the cause of the failure to compile, I uninstalled the HP Laserjet 1200 networked printer drivers from my XP machine. These require the PCL 6 drivers that the Quartus package was loading. In comparison, here are the DLLs and threads when Quartus 10 is run with the HPLaserjet printer drivers installed:

With the HP Laserjet Drivers uninstalled, I get:

However, the result is the same in both cases. There are no reports or output generated. Each module just reports "You have a valid up-to-date license" and it reports compile successful with no errors in a very short period of time.
