Subject: [oc] PCI card can't work in different motherboard
Hi everyone,i have just finish implementing a Slave PCI into a FPGA on a PCI board. And this core seems work fine. Work fine means the OS can find the new hardware component and ask for the driver, also can read / write data by using WinDriver. But when i plug this card onto another motherboard which is with on-board lan card. The OS can't discover this new hardware and the original on-board lan card on this mothercard has disappeared(it don't show up in the software). However, my core do not have problem in every motherboard without on-board lan card.
I find it very strange and i don't know why. Is the PCIBIOs on different motherboard has difference in configurating the device? Or the memory range i declare in my core has exceed the range that the mother board can give to my hardware?( i just declare 256 K in my hardware). Or anything crush in the interrpt? Is it possible that a PCI card can work in one motherboard but fail in another one?
Thank you very much and any reply will be appreciated.
Regards, TOM
