    For getting started with ISE, as I had the same problem with it at first (it
    wasn't easy to just guess my way through how to use it), I recommend these
    videos:
    http://www.digilent.us/Support/Videos.html

    They walk you through basic operation of ISE.

    If you need more help though, the xilinx forums are very good for this kind
    of thing.
