NIOS2 and USB Software Guard

Is there someone out there, who uses NIOS2 together with an Altera USB Software Guard (Dongle)? 

 

I have switched from parallelport to USB Guard a few weeks ago, and since this point of time the 

building script of SOPC builder (at the system generation tab) doesn't find a valid license. At the  

component view of the SOPC builder (system components tab) the cpu is viewed with full license  

and the license setup at quartus also shows a valid license. 

 

Is this a problem with the USB guard? - if yes - is there a patch ? 

 

Do i have to reinstall NIOS2, Quartus or even the whole system? 

 

PS: I am using Quartus 5.0 with service pack 1.04 and NIOS2 Version 5.0 Build: 73c

OK - Panic is over 

 

replace eperl.exe in the <Nios II install dir>\components\altera_nios2 

directory with this one: 

 

ftp://ftp.altera.com/outgoing/download/su...nios2/eperl.exe (ftp://ftp.altera.com/outgoing/download/support/ip/processors/nios2/eperl.exe)
