Are you looking for any version in particular? 

64 bit versions for linux have been around longer than windows as far as I can tell.

I'm looking for a one in Windows. Does Quartus II 12.1 Sp1 support 64 bit processing? 

If so, kindly clarify on how to do that.

Yes. It installs the 32 and 64 bit versions during installation. Then you just run the correct one.

thanks tricky for your response. But when I tried to compile a Arria V design (5AGXFB3H6F35C4), I got following error message  

"Error (11371): Compiling a design on Arria V 5AGXFB3 requires at least a 64-bit version of the Quartus II software." 

Does it have anything to do with the license? i mean For 64-bit version is any specific licenses required?

Have you loaded the 64-bit version of quartus? It is separate to the 32 bit version.

You will need XP 64bit to load the 64 bit version. (and also 64bit win 7 etc)

Okay. I understand. Can you pls tell how to load the 64 bit version? Should it be done during installation? 

I have tried giving quartus --64bit <*.qpf> and quartus_map --64bit<*.qpf> from command prompt. it did not work and prompted an error message that "64 bit flag can be used with this executable".
