Xilinx ISE Impact crashes during configuration

I am trying to configure a toy application with a small FPGA component
and a small PoewerPC component on a Xilinx xc2vp20 FPGA mounted on an
AFX development board. I am using Xilinx EDK 6.1.2 and Xilinx ISE
6.1.03i. I am able to generate run all the compilation steps, but when
I try to configure the FPGA using the generated .bit, .bmm and .elf
files, Impact crashes with the error message

"FATAL_ERROR:GuiUtilities:WinApp.c:657: $Revision - ...."

The Xlinx Answers Database is not being very useful. Does anyone have
any idea what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mahim
 
Are you trying to use Windows NT? Xilinx no longer supports NT and this
causes both Impact and Core Generator to crash on my system.

Should have mentioned this. I am using Windows XP.
