SignalTap needs only M9K memory in Quartus II 9.1

[Altera_Forum]

Helllo members. 

 I got a problem while designing using Quartus II 9.1 SP2 with signalTap. SignalTap always uses M9K memory even though I set the memory type AUTO during fitting.   Does anyone have a solution?

I already used M9K memories in the design and have not much of remaining M9K memories to use with SignalTap while M144K memories are not used at all.

Then set it to use M144k 

On auto, it just uses whatever is available. It should never use already assigned memory.

Thank you Tricky. 

 I done that already. But, it made an error. I can not remember the exact error messages but the key point was M144K can not be used for two-port memory.
