ISE 6.1 Dies Out of the Gate

[Tom Seim]

I just installed ISE 6.1 and tried to start a new project. The program
responded by immediately crashing (several times, same result).
Anybody else experience this?

What OS are you using? Xilinx dropped NT support with version 5.1i (even
though it worked). Now with 6.1i I can't get Impact or Core Generator to
run.

XP Home. I have since been advised to turn off virus scanning (McAfee
in my case) during installation. I have done this, resulting in mixed
success. Now the project nav starts ok, but if I try to launch coregen
it fails. I have gone thru NUMEROUS uninstalls/installs with 2
different computers running 2000 and XP Home without success. I did an
install on a virgin laptop running XP PRO w/o problems. I am in touch
with tech support and will advise on the outcome.

I had a problem with ISE6.1 not opening on Windows XP Home. I
read your posting and turned off the Auto-Protect mode of the Norton
Anti-virus. That solved the problem. ISE6.1 opens and works OK with
the Anti-virus Auto-Protect mode OFF. ISE6.1 works correctly on
Windows XP PRO with the Auto-Protect mode ON.
Thanks for your help,
