Problem Title:

2.1i JTAG Programmer - VERIFY operation fails "too many mismatches..." errors (Spartan, Virtex...)



Problem Description:

Urgency:    Hot

General Description:
When performing a verify on a FPGA bit file within JTAG
programmer, the verify fails. The following message is observed in the
pop-up window "Too many mismatches...verification aborted".


Solution 1:

The verify operation on all the FPGA devices through the 1.5/1.5i/2.1i
jtagprogrammer is not currently supported.

The workaround is to verify the done status as you
would in other FPGA configuration modes by probing the done pin.
Make sure that the "verify" option is not selected in the JTAG
programmer.
