MMD ERROR while connecting to board

Hi 

 

ive got some troubles setting up an initial Hello World (for opencl) on the terasic de5net board. (windows7, 64) 

 

the current error I get is " MMD ERROR: failed to scan for the PCI device." 

 

this happens while "aocl diagnose" even though the driver install happend to be successful. (Error appears 16 times in a row. I suppose it goes through all the pci ports.) 

 

Same comes up when trying to program FPGA with "aocl program" after compiling the kernel file. 

 

Any idea what this could be? It shouldn't be a board/PCIe port problem as I ran some pci-specific example programs/designs from terasic. (Programming over quartus programmer->USB/jtag) 

 

is the driver not well installed?? or is the mmd library not up to date? shouldnt it try to program the fpga over the usb/jtag if it fails over pcie?  

 

Thanks for any help!
