Xilinx ISE 10.1 Installation Steps with Registration ID Information

1. Download Xilinx 10.1 "ISE Foundation Webpack" version whose size ~2.24GB!

2. In the downloaded folder, go to webpack/bin/nt & run the setup.exe of the lesser file size(~12KB) as administrator! The other setup.exe(~788KB) never worked!

3. When it asks for a Registration ID, click the Button down below which redirects to the Xilinx website. Go to the Legacy Licensing tab as shown:

4. It asks for a form to be filled! I filled in as a "Student", "High Performance Computing", "Spartan 3 Family" and a bit of some project details. Finally it generated a Registration ID!

The one that is marked blue is the one that we have to enter in the setup.

The setup window may look to have stopped at 99% & may never disappear! Not to worry; It has got installed & you may check it by running the Xilinx!

Hope you found this a bit useful!
