Hi

Thanks for you update. For Image B – (failed to configure, conf_done did not go high). This error message means failed to program design into FPGA. May I know, has this board ever working before? Because the symptom it shows, more to faulty dev kit board?

Could you help check and try program with your own Quartus design first, don’t use BTS design. This is to verify whether the dev kit board still functional or not. Provide screenshot of your tasting.

    Hello

    When I received the board the first thing that I tried to do with it was to get the board test software working and I was unable to do so, so it's possible that the board is non-functional in some way related to the board test. However, I have been able to program PCIe benchmarking firmware into the correct location and successfully configure the FPGA.

    Perhaps the problem is that the bt_config project that I have access to is not correct? I used the one available from the Intel website. Is there a different one that I should be using?

    Regards
