Cannot install DSP builder 13.1.0 to Quartus 13.1.3

[Altera_Forum]

Hello people, 

 I recently install the update for Quartus 13.1 which replaces build 13.1.0 with 13.1.3.  Now I try to install DSP Builder but I cannot do it because DSP builder has build 13.1.0 and I get an installation error. Do I need to revert the Quartus installation back to 13.1.0 or is there any update or workaround for DSP Builder?  Thanks!

What is the specific error you see, which executable did you run, and what platform are you targeting?  

 I ran QuartusSetup-13.1.3.178.exe to install over 13.1 (build 162) on Windows7 and this updated Quartus & DSP Builder Advanced to build 178. There were no changes to DSP Builder Standard so this remains unchanged from the 13.1 install as build 162.

I hope that this change doesnt act as a timebomb later.  What I could do now would be to run the quartus update installer again in case it also updates the DSP builder installation.
