Quartus II 13.0.1 access violation error

DCote3

I am getting a weird access violation error with Quartus II 13.0.1 on a new PC. I installed Quartus II and it worked for a while. I installed other software (including Quartus Prime) and now when I run Quartus II I get an access violation for most actions in the UI.

So I uninstalled and reinstalled Quartus II. After that, it worked correctly and allowed me to build my project, edit files, and view timing reports in Timing Analyzer. All was good until I rebooted my PC and now Quartus II is back to giving me an access violation for many actions. An example error report is shown below.

I need to use Quartus II version 13 since that is the last version to support the FPGA I am targeting.

Any idea what might be causing this?

Solved:

I have got Quartus II 13.0.1 running on my new PC by checking the "Run this program as an administrator" option on the Compatibility tab under Properties of the quartus.exe application at C:\altera\13.0sp1\quartus\bin64.

I now get a UAC prompt every time I launch Quartus II, but at least it runs. This was not necessary on my old PC, and I am logged in as an administrator on both machines. I don't know what the difference is, but I can live with this minor annoyance.

I hope this helps if anyone else runs into the same problem.

Hi.

 

Hi, 

 

Can you try by deleting the "db" and "incremental_db" folders from created project stored directory. 

 

Thanks,
Ean

I deleted those folders from the project. I opened the project and got the following error when I clicked on the Files tab in the project navigator:

Then I clicked OK on the error dialog which closed the application. After that I opened the application and selected the same project and I got another error dialog before I did anything (no clicks, no typing, nothing, just waited for a second or two).

Further information. I uninstalled both Quartus II and Quartus Prime (and Visual Studio Community Edition which I believe was the last thing I installed before these troubles began). I then rebooted and reinstalled Quartus II.

The installer launched Quartus II. I deleted the db folders in the project directory as suggested earlier. I opened the project. Everything worked as expected. I could build the project and run the timing analyzer. I closed that project and opened a second project with a testbench to try the Modelsim simulator. That worked as expected as well, I rebuilt the project and ran the simulation. I closed that project and quit Quartus II. 

Then I re-launched Quartus II and re-opened the first project again. I was again greeted with the access violation error dialog a second or two after opening the project, before doing anything else (no clicking of any controls etc.). A few seconds later a second access violation error dialog was presented (over top of the first, but with different content and visible as a third Quartus window). Clicking the OK button in any error dialog causes Quartus II to quit.

One successful run per installation is frustrating, since it takes an hour or so to uninstall and reinstall Quartus II.

Any suggestions? How do I ask for more direct support from Intel?

Is there a reason why you have to use such an old version of Quartus?  What device are you targeting?

Yes, Quartus II v 13 is the last version to support the FPGA I am targeting (as I said earlier). I can't switch to a newer version, and I can't switch to a different FPGA.

This version was working fine on my previous PC with Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. The problem is likely something in or missing from my new PC, but the error message doesn't give me any useful information about what the cause is.

Hi,

you reported your old PC was running Windows 10 Pro. If the new OS is Windows 11, I won't be surprised if you have problems with Quartus.

Hi,
just notice that no Quartus version before 23.x is specified to work with Windows 11. According to my experience, previous versions back to 9.0 run still under Windows 10, but Windows 11 is generally known to bring up many incompatibility issues. If you are though stuck to Windows 11, you may think about running Quartus in a virtual machine.
