Quartus II

What works

The installer (mostly) The startup process for the main executable (mostly)

What does not

They both block on trying to load Sentinel.sys using ntoskrnl.dll, hal.dll and main.exe. This fails, is reported back and completely ignored in a crash-hang-loop (I think). Waited for 5 minutes. err:module:import_dll Library HAL.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\drivers\\SENTINEL.SYS") not found err:module:import_dll Library ntoskrnl.exe (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\drivers\\SENTINEL.SYS") not found err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\windows\\system32\\drivers\\SENTINEL.SYS" failed, status c0000135 Error: code 2 on CreateProcess: net start sentinel

Additional Comments

The program is pretty good, a tad slow at times. It's one of the two things that keeps me from kicking my Windows machine out. The install & run both get equally far, except that the installer does fulfill its function and the application does not (hence the yes/no). Tested with both 6.0 and 6.1, first from cd-rom (came with dev board), second from internet. Did not get far enough to see whether the MAC probe/licensing worked.
