| Gentlemen:     Please bear with me if I stumble here, 
this is my first Verilog experience. I have setup a system with Xilinx ISE 
Foundation (the new one) and I have Modelsim 5.6a running as a simulator. I can 
compile the pci_bridge with no errors and even see PAR (Place and Route) show 
what looks like a valid floorplan. Based on that, I think that I have the bridge 
options in pci_user_constants at least set to no error in compilation (guest, 2 
pci images, 2 wb images, no define of either FPGA or XILINX [issue with 
RAMB4_S16_S16 but thats another story, I think]).     I can also both compile and simulate 
with Modelsim. In running the simulator on the system.v file, I can see the 
first error I get is basically "*** monitor - PCI Test 1 OE signals have X's". 
     So, can anyone help point me on the 
correct path to understanding and appreciating this wonderful (and complicated) 
piece of code that I have been studying for a couple of weeks now and just 
gotten to where I can now run simulation. I am kinda new at this and a bit lost 
right now.     Maybe I have a host setting somewhere 
in the bench which should be guest, or maybe I have some option in 
pci_blue_options.vh set for external arbiter when it should be internal. Quite 
frankly, I don't know where to go next.     A verbose answer for a newbie would be 
very appreciated. Charles |
