Now I feel hopeless.... Is there some special LED that says the FPGA is being programmed or something? What type of filesystem did you use?
When you plug the usb stick into the PC, what file size does it report for that .bit file that you have on the usb stick?
I tried to plug it into my computer... it didn't work... the PC does not even recognize the device.... what can be the problem?
I'm looking for partitioning programs for Windows7 to create a partition identical to that of mrflibble...
This morning I tried using my custom USB plug again, checked signals (D-,D+, GND.. they all seem good), inserted it into my PC.. but nothing happened..
Just a question: what happen after the FPGA has been programmed with test.bit? Do the leds start suddenly litting on (according to switches configuration).. even if mem stick is STILL in and jumper jp11 is still on,
or should I reboot the board to see the leds?
Please keep posting in the same thread, don't create new ones. Threads merged [alexan_e]
No, it seems that you've been "cutting the toothpich with the axe" :lol:Can anyone confirm me that the reason why this solution does not work, is because differential pair signal integrity was very probably broken?
Digilent told me that I should format the mem stick to FAT (I did but it didn't work either). They also told me that the .bit file must be compatible with the FPGA, otherwise the board rejects it... well I think the .bit file is compatible,This calls for ... google "create partition windows 7".
I applaud your perseverance.But you would do well to forget that horrendous blob of solder induced fpga board torture.
Yes.
No.
After programming is succesful, you will clearly see the difference in led state.
So what did digilent have to say on the matter of programming from usb stick?
Try this format utility for windows, maybe it helps

Find a friend/colegue who knows how to hold the soldering iron "from the right side" and change the wires that you've used those are waaaaay too thick.
..anyway at this moment I'm totally hopeless.... I'm not even sure the JTAG programmer I will receive in about 20 days (hopely) will work....
