Hi,

I installed ModelSim PE Student Edition 10.1 on Windows 7 32-bit OS in 
January 2012. I am able to compile the verilog files without any error. 
But when i try to load the design for simulation i get the error message 
as shown below. I copied the "student_license.dat" file into the 
installation directory of ModelSim as specified in email from Mentor 
Graphics.

Please provide a solution to this problem. Thanks in advance.

I defined a environment variable "LM_LICENSE_FILE" pointing to the 
"student_license.dat" file, but i am still getting the same error 
message as described previously.

I have installed Model Sim in E: drive instead of the default C: drive. 
Is the error occuring due to installation in a non-default location ?

still getting the same error message.
