Just got the old PC from the storage of the lab which has ISE 4.2 installed. I only need the PC to program Virtex 6000 and xc18v04, do I need to upgrade to ISE 6 or above? Thank you.
Can ISE 4.2 program Virtex 2 6000K devices?

If you're not using any legacy features (support for older devices or Aldec-based schematics) though I would recommend updating.
