Cable connection failed

Apr 22, 2004 0 Replies

Hi there,


I tried to connect my LPT1 with a digilab 2e board by using a parallel



4 cable (JTAG).

I startet IMPACT and the automatically boundary scan. But I'm always received this message:



Connecting to cable (Parallel Port - LPT1).

I tried to use the same cable with a laptop and it works. I checked my LPT1 Port with a printer and the port works ok.



The Port in the Bios is set to ECP. The drivers "windrvr.sys" and "xpc4drvr.sys" are in the system32/driver directory. I checked the fliset.txt and install.log, both are ok. I installed Xilinx 6.1.03i again. I installed the sevicepack 4. Between the installing were some error messages. The software can't copy some files.



I'm using a PC from DELL with windows2000.



I don't know what i can do now, please help me.


Daniel
