F FPGA board.Two months ago may be i had seen in altera website that quartus || version9.0 support the ACEX family but now i can't find any information about the ACEX family in altera website.so now i am confused.what to do now?

moreover i downloaded the quartus || version9.0 and tried to install it in windows 8 but i couldn't.Does quartus || version9.0 support in windows 8?

    Quartus 9 I'd now 7 years old and only supports Windows Xp and Linux.

    Why do you want to do development on such an old device? It is a 20 year old part. You would be much better of getting a cyclone family device instead. You'll get better support on the forum and you can use the newest tools.

    sorry for late reply.

    thanks for the info.

    i wanna make a digital oscilloscope with pluto board because my instructor asked me to do with that board because it's cheaper and small.

    thanks once again for your help.
