Hi Mike,
Sorry, but I have never used Vivado. I have always used ISE Webpack. As far as I can tell Vivado is not free, or has that situation changed?
Hi Derek,
It’s probably just me!
I thought I followed the links on the Xilinx site for the webpack but it took me to a Vivado installation. However, I managed to get a free licence for it ok. As they’ve declared the XC9500 obsolete this series is no longer in the new device list.
Anyway, I’ve solved the problem by going back to the Xilinx archive where I found an old ISE Webpack version 12.2. This version includes the XC9500 series so I’m just starting to play around with schematics – looks very promising.
Thanks,
Mike

Careful Mike....
The XC9500 series is indeed obsolete. That is why we use the XC9572XL. :-) The XL variant is not obsolete and is a completely different part (even down to the supply voltage).
I suspect if you try to build cores with a XC9572 target they will not work in the Guzunty.
Also, I don't think this will matter, but ISE 12 is not the latest. IIRC, ISE is at rev 14. Just sayin'. I would not recommend a switch now because the download is absolutely HUGE and rev 12 will work just fine for you.
Derek,
Thanks for that. I think I’m set up for now with v 12 and I am using the XC9572XL so I can start playing.
Thanks for your help.
Mike

Glad you're off and running. I'm going to leave this issue open until I get a wiki page up explaining how to download and set up ISE.
I have finally gotten round to adding an Install ISE wiki page, so I believe we can now close this issue.
How do you add the XC9500 series to the device list in Vivado?
