Problems downloading to flash

[mreng]

Hi,

I'm new to FPGAs, so I purchased a BASYS3 to play around with.  In following the "Getting Started with BASYS 3" video (youtube), I cannot save e a configuration to a memory device as that option is grayed out in my case (see attached screen capture).  Does anyone have any ideas what's causing this and how to overcome it?

Thanks in advance

Hi jpeyron,

Thanks for the tread above.  It helped and I was able to solve it.  I'd  picked the wrong memory device, so once that was fixed, the .bin file downloaded without issues.
