LV2015 FPGA Compilation on local computer is trying to use Xilinx 14.7 (not installed), when I need it to use 10.1 (installed)

I recently upgraded from LV 2012 to LV 2015 and have been trying to migrate my project to the new LV version. This went relatively smoothly until I had to recompile my FPGA software onto my PCIe-7852R and got a compile error:  

 

"The compilation cannot be performed by the compile worker. The compile worker may be configured incorrectly for this compilation, or it may be in an error state"

I searched this error and determined that since I have a PCIe-7852R with a Virtex II, I need the 10.1 version of Xilinx Tools, which is what I was using when I was succesfully compiling via LV 2012. I downloaded and installed the 2015 version of Xilinx ISE 10.1 found here, as well as the SP1 for 10.1 here, but when the compiler runs it lists Xilinx 14.7 as the compilation tool. I went to my control panel, add/remove programs and looked at which Xilinx Tools were installed hoping to uninstall 14.7 to solve this problem, but 14.7 isn't even listed.

So as far as I can figure, the compilation is failing because the compiler is looking for a version of Xilinx Tools that I don't have installed, and the wrong version for my FPGA hardware at that. How can I get the compiler to use 10.1?

Never mind, I'm an idiot, my FPGA has Virtex 5 not Virtex II >.<

Installed Xilinx 14.7 and it's working now.
