I've seen that happen when the license file can't be located.

i had a simular problem with version 5.7 and i solved it removing the file vsim.wlf (located in my working directory) before running modelsim.

hope this help.

I just tried and it doesn't work I checked up licence file with "diagnose" tool, licence is ok and environment variable is ok too :'(

Try "vsim -c" in a DOS box or Cygwin shell and see if you get any error messages. Use the "lmutil lmdiag" and "set" command to see if your license file is OK and your LM_LICENSE_FILE variable is pointing to your license file. Also make sure you don't have any expired features/increment lines in your file.

I used to have this problem, but it went away after installing XP SP2.
