When installing XACT version 5.1.1 software (or any Xilinx CD-ROM software)
from an external CD-ROM drive, please make sure that no other device
(such as the Xilinx Key) is attached to the same parallel port. The external
CD-ROM SCSI adaptor should be connected directly to the parallel port so that
the installation can be completed successfully. Otherwise, your CD-ROM drive
may not be able to communicate to the PC correctly if the SCSI connector is
not attached to the parallel port directly.
CAUSE:
Xilinx programmable key (or other vendor keys) may cause communication
problem between the PC and the CD-ROM drive via the SCSI adaptor.
Remove any software keys from the parallel port so that the CD-ROM SCSI adaptor
is attached directly to the port!
