14 years ago --- Quote Start --- Oh my God, I wasted more than 8 hours on this problem, and finally I solved it. *************************************************** The trick is......as adviced by FluxCapacitor to run the software "as Administrator" even if you have Administrator priviliges!!! *************************************************** I do not know who to blame...the Windows team or the Altera team?! Any way, it is good to spread this bug and its solution for the future users of Quartus II software Special thanks to FluxCapacitor:cool: --- Quote End --- Your welcome. Glad to hear it worked for you too! :D I don't think this is any fault of Altera's as such. It something that I have had to do for a number of apps that I run to function correctly. Being device related it must be calling a system DLL that requires some degree of access not associated by the win 7 administrator. Hopefully the Quartus developers can look at what is causing it and circumvent the security level requirements somehow.
