I have two FPGA boards from Digilent, both with Xilinx Arty A7; Basys3 and CMOD A7 15T. Neither one will connect through the hardware manager on Vivado. I am able to use the Basys3 by generating a raw bit file and saving it to a USB memory stick and inserting it into the Basys3, but the CMOD A7 does not have a USB port for raw bit files. How frustrating that the hardware manager does not connect to any board I plug into my computer. I have seen a few forums that outline the same issue, with NO ANSWERS. This is unsatisfactory! How can I have two different boards and neither will connect? How can I utilize this awesome technology for engineering, if it doesn't work, and I cannot find the answer to fix the problem. I have asked on this forum before, a while back for help on connecting the Basys3, with no help.
Two boards, neither will connect for JTAG programming through mini-usb port. Has to be an issue with Vivado or what?

Hello,
I have two FPGA boards from Digilent, both with Xilinx Arty A7; Basys3 and CMOD A7 15T. Neither one will connect through the hardware manager on Vivado.
