Unable to generate NIOS II

Hi all,

I'm using Altera Quartus 2 6.1 and the board that I'm using is UP3
development board from Altera.

I'm opening the example of Nios II system made by Altera.
But i get the following error when I try to generate it.
What error is this?

On the other hand, what is the best way to save a stream of data into
SDRAM? or would it be better if I made a soft memory for this purpose?
Regards,
Sim

It appears that you have the 6.1 and 7.2 releases mixed together. Quartus and
Nios II EDS need to have the same version.

BTW, you can better support for these sorts of issues from the Nios II Forum
