Hi,
I am trying to connect the Stratix V GXEAN-01 board to a Motherboard using PCIe on x16 slot. The PC runs windows 8.1. I have already setup Quartus standard edition with license and have visual studio with Open CL support. Do you have a FPGA build ( a hello world program) which is a simple program to test if the FPGA setup works OK or not ? If I connected the FPGA out of the box should the windows enumerate the device on device manager atleast as unknown device? I do not see any new (unknown or any) device enumerated on the host PC. I can see that some LEDs light up when I turn on the PC and the heat sink on FPGA is running. Thanks and Best Regards, FasiLink Copied

Development kits (almost) always come with a default load that will demonstrate the basics of it's purpose. PCIe cards generally either ship with such a load already programmed into it or there will be a standard image available with the supporting doc.
Can you post a link to the board you're referring to? Cheers, Alex- Mark as New

Could you please send me a hello program ? One of the papers that came with the kit had the following link for downloading the software: https://www.altera.com/products/boards_and_kits/dev-kits/altera/kit-sv-gx-host.html Thanks, Fasi

The 'hello' program you want comes as part of the 'Kit installation' you can download from that link. Don't expect it to print 'hello world' - it's not that sort of board. However, the sample projects that do come with the kit installation will be appropriate to the board.
That board does ship with a load that should allow it to do something out of the box. Read the User Guide carefully. Check jumper and dip switch settings. Cheers, Alex
