Ditto to what Antti says on ispLEVER Starter plus a couple of links...

Yes, ispLEVER Starter is a web downloadable version of ispLEVER for
Windows, which you can download here:
http://www.latticesemi.com/products/...verstarter.cfm

ispLEVER Starter supports the ispMACH 4000V device, among others.

> Also what tools do I need for In system Programming?
The programming tools are called ispVM, which you can download here:
http://www.latticesemi.com/products/...stem/index.cfm

Both downloads are complimentary, but you will need to register for
Lattice web account prior to downloading these tools.

No indeed - but I thought I'd better at least one thing :-)
