Is anybody interested on remote support

I am, because the BCD counter with logic (like the one attached) is not counting down correctly. what should I do?

    What do you mean by "is not counting down correctly"?

    You are using gated clocks in your design, which is a very bad habit and can generate all sort of problems. You should directly connect all your clocks to the clock pin and use clock/count enables instead.

    Plus you're using internal tri-states. These just get converted to muxes at the end of the day (unless they're actually on external IO pins). It just slows down synthesis time.
