Hi,
I am trying to compile the basic peripheral test app on a Digilent Nexys 2 board with a Spartan 3E FPGA on Vista 32bit. I am on the administrator account.
I get the following last few console lines
Running Xilinx Implementation tools..
*********************************************

.... Copying flowfile c:/Xilinx/11.1/ISE/xilinx/data/fpga.flw into working

Using Flow File: G:/Electronics/FPGA/EDK_Projects/Test1/implementation/fpga.flw
Using Option File(s):

It seems to stall right after this. The process progress indicator continues animation, but there is no CPU activity for XPS.
I kindly request someone to help me out.
Thanks and Regards,
Karthik

Solved! Seems to be an acess rights problem. It works from a thumb drive; a related solution i found on this forum. If I copy the project folder back to the hard drive and use "Update Bitstream", it7 still works.
I have only the Xilinx Cygwin. I might upgrade to Windows 7 and see if its better.

Hi!
I've got the same problem on Windows 7 but still cannot solve it.
Could you tell me more details about what exactly you have done?

Sorry, its been a while since I had this prob and I dont remember this very well. But I believe starting Xilinx as an administrator fixed the problem.There is a similar post on this forum which might help you.
