Fast Models 9.1 and Windows 8.1

I installed Fast Models 9.1 and Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate on my Windows 8.1 x86_64 PC.

I am trying some examples of Fast Models 9.1. For example, this one:

D:\ARM\FastModelsPortfolio_9.1\examples\FVP_VE\Build_Cortex-A15x1

This example can be compiled without any error on my PC. I generated both ISIM system and CADI library. Unfortunately, when I started the ISIM executable, isim_system_Win64-Release-VC2013.exe, in a command line window, ISIM crashed immediately and there was no error message. However, when I copied the folder, Win64-Release-VC2013, to a Windows 7 x86_64 PC and started the ISIM executable, it worked well.

I know Fast Models 9.1 said it supports only Windows 7, not Windows 8.1. However, I still want to know that does anyone have a workaround to run the ISIM executable on Windows 8.1.

  • I installed Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010 on my Windows 8.1 x86_64 PC, rebuilt the example, and started the ISIM executable. They worked!

    I guess Fast Model 9.1 isn't fully compatible with Visual Studio 2013 (Update 4) on Windows 8.1.
