STM32F100RBT6B development board

I'm trying to redesign the STM32F100RBT6B without ST-LINK. something I did from the STM32VLDISCOVERY schematic file. but the redesigned hardware was not working with STM32 ST-LINKER UTILITY. For your reference, I have attached a schematic file 

showing the error:

16:19:07: Can not connect to Target!
Please select "Connect Under Reset" mode from Target->Settings menu and try again. If you're trying to connect to a low-frequency application, please select a lower SWD Frequency mode from Target->Settings menu.
16:29:02: No target connected

    Then there are still two problems:

    • the ST-LINK Utility has been on NRND for a very long time and is neither recommended nor supported anymore
    • the VLDISCOVERY is already very old and still has the also very old ST-LINK/V1, which in turn is no longer supported by the STM32Cubeprogrammer

    In addition, I don’t know how you connected your new board to this very old ST-LINK/V1.

    Instead, I recommend that you get and use a more up-to-date ST-LINK, e.g. by breaking from any NUCLEO-64

    Hope that helps?

    Welcome @saran, to the community!

    If you connect the board to an external ST-LINK, what kind of ST-LINK is it?

    You have an 80 MHz crystal in the schematics at HSE. Do you realise that the STM32F100RBT6B can only work with max. 24MHz crystals?

    Thanks for your response, sir.

    In the schematic, I have wrongly mentioned as 80MHz. But in reality, I have using 8MHz in the circuit.

    I have designed the board with reference to the STM32VLDISCOVERY board. For programming, I took the parallel connection from the Debugger of the STM32VLDISCOVERY board.

    For your reference, I have given below the product link,

    Thanks in advance
