How to solve the unable to detect any supported xilinx cable in identify?

Hi.
Now I'm trying to run Identify Debugger, My Identify debugger is old version, 3.0.
The problem is that I've got some error message as below.

Meanwhile, I can use IMPACK as well. the IMPACK is work well.
But I can't use identify debugger. I don't know what should I do to solve?

Code:

Reinstall the old version of the driver that was compatible with the identify. The driver installed by the newer tools (ISE-impact) appears to be incompatible.

In these situations it's usuallybeasier to have two PCs one running the old tool and driver and the other running the new tools.

My ISE-IMPACK is ISE Design Suite 14.7 and latest version. but Identify is a little bit old version.
then did you mean that should I have to change Identify version ?
 

No install the old version of ISE that was available with Identify 3.0. You might get away with just installing the ISE lab tools for that version of ISE, I don't believe there is a standalone driver installation file for the tools. Unfortunately that means you won't be able to use the IMPACT, Chipscope, etc from ISE 14.7 unless you reinstall the driver that comes with that version.

Hence my recommendation to setup a separate PC with both the old tools (or lab tools) and Identify.

Or a virtual machine, e.g. VirtualBox.
