Thanks for the reply.
My Goal in this adventure is have PCIe working with SOPC or Qsys. I tried AN532 but didn't have luck. Any help would be good. - Altera_Forum

hum...sounds unusual.
If the high-pef work, this design should work. I don't recall about the LED, but at minimum, PC should recognize it. By the way, the design on wiki is not ref design and will not compatible with the document in some degree. Qsys version and high-pef design is totally different. - Altera_Forum

Dip switch are set with reference to User Manual.
Same settings work with PCIe Hi-perf reference design. - Altera_Forum

You might need to set the dipsw to select x1, x4, or x8 on the board.
I believe that the board's power switch is on... Both XP 32bit, 64bit should be fine. - Altera_Forum

Thanks for the reply.
I am just trying to run the reference design. I loaded sof file to board and restarted machine as instructed in the documentation, but I don't see any PCIe LED light up and OS doesn't recognize the board. OS I am using is Windows XP. - Altera_Forum
