hi all,
i am using a development board from Avnet featuring a Spartan 3.
I am trying to download a bitstream to the board over the parallel port by using the EDK programmer provided by Xilinx.
Even though it recognises the LPT port and the programming mode is set correctly (boundary scan mode), i get an error report that the cable connection fails.
btw, I am using a laptop for programming the fpga.
I don't know what is wrong.
anybody got any ideas?
thanks in advance!
