    1616Oh man, now you've done it...Copy the following lines of code into the MHS file:
    1717 BEGIN opb_intc[[BR]]
    … …

    4444For the size of this project, it will be easier to simply recreate the project using Base System Builder.  You can clear out the contents of the directory containing all the files, or simply create a new folder.

    53 '''When I download my project (''download.bit'') to the board, nothing happens.'''
    54  * Did the lowest LED light up up downloading?
    55    * Yes? This indicates that the program has reached the board but that there may be something wrong with the serial connection.  Check these and try again.
    56    * No? This indicates that the program never got to your board.  Check the JTAG connection and try again.  Then move to the following questions.
    57  * Do the baud rates match between your project and Tera Term.

     58    * See Step 3 and "NOTE" on the '''Running the Program''' page: '''[wiki:peripheral_test/execution here.]'''
     59  * Review Steps 2-6 of '''Setting up the Peripheral Test in XPS''':  '''[wiki:peripheral_test/sw_setup here.]'''

     64* '''Everything looks right, but when I try downloading to the board with iMPACT, nothing happens.'''[[BR]]
     65Try restarting !TeraTerm and iMPACT. If this doesn't work, try the other methods listed in the '''Download Peripheral Test to the Board''' section located '''[wiki:peripheral_test/execution here]'''.
