Okay, here are the first steps to hopefully solve the problem. Thanks to the Xilinx Webcase Specialists
- Download the zip-file ftp://ftp.xilinx.com/pub/utilities/fpga/install_cable.zip
- Overwrite inf file.
- ran batch file (according to readme.pdf)
- Immediatley new device manager changed from "unknow device" to "Xilinx"
- Followed three times "New Hardware found" (manually triggerd, because no wizard appeared).
- "Programming cables cables > Xilinx Platform Cable USB" in device manger
- Led on cable box changed to green.
Everything seems to be set up properly now. But impact and ChipScopePro still cant find the cable. But maybe the new issues are cause by the fact that I work remote on my server.
