Why not open a brand new "New Text Document.txt"copy paste this one single line into the text file..... Isn't minerd for CPU mining not GPU?:3333 -u user.worker -p passwordAnd I saved it as START.BAT into the folder of CGminer...But if I click on START.BAT it quickly opens a commandprompt and ends it right away...What am I doing wrong?Thanks...ethereum youtube channelJust had the same problem.51 attack bitcoin wikiA small amount of research shows this information at the top to be out of date.ecb bitcoin reportcgminer no longer supports scrypt (or gpus).bitcoin vice podcastTried to check my work on this site and says my miner is not active.bitcoin zelf maken

This environment variable should be set now and should stay set.Note that this is not part of the cgminer command.It's done separately.If the card you're mining on is the same one driving your monitor, you may see decreased performance.I run my system at a lower setting if the same gpu is driving my monitor so the display stays responsive.Try this command if running with a monitor and see what happens.This came from the config for a 5750 from gui-miner scrypt.:3334 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I 13 -g 1 -l 1 -T --thread-concurrency 3200Don't try to read this and type it, as it may be hard to read the parameters.Copy and paste it.You would have to customize your gpu-platform and device number.The -T option allows the output to be one long series of text lines, which can be useful for debugging.:3334 --gpu-platform 0 -d 1 -w 256 -v 1 -I 18 -g 1 -l 1 -T --thread-concurrency 0Don't try to read this and type it, as it may be hard to read the parameters.To exit this mode, press CTRL-C.  If you want a screen where the status updates repaint in the same space, take off the -T.The 5400 is not capable of huge hash numbers, but should do better than 16 KH.

I had a few times when I was getting really low hash rate, so they may have been having problems.A few times, cgminer shut down and said no servers were available.Try stopping and restarting cgminer several times.After each restart, wait a few minutes to let the hash rate maximize.You could also try the other servers.Even though I'm in the US, I use the EU servers since they seem to be more stable.This assumes you're mining Litecoin./:::::3334I think there is a way you can program a failover setup in cgminer so it will go to backup pools or servers if some are not performing.I haven't done that though.Sincerely,Ron thank you so much rfrazierltc I want to buy a new computer, and i need your advice again .... what you recommend me ?i want to buy 4 Cards thanks again Neoaix,Not sure exactly what your question is.Do you want to buy or build?The following thread talks about a generic parts list for a new rig and some basic costs.It does not talk specifically about model numbers.

/index.php?p=/discussion/498/litecoin-miner-building#Item_8Ron Hey guys, i'm having an issue with CGminer whenever i use the --gpu-engine flag.i'm running a Sapphire R290X BF4 Edition.it has a stock core of 1000Mhz.however whenever i use the gpu-engine flag even if i set it to 900 (i.e.--gpu-engine 900) my whole system crashes and i need to reboot.if i do not use the gpu-engine flag it mines without issue (however slightly slow) this is the command i am using.cgminer --scrypt -o {address} -O u:p -I 20 -g 1 -w 512 --thread-concurrency 32765 -v 1 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-engine 900 For other noobs out thee.If you get the error "ValueError too many values to unpack"...Try lowering the length of your worker's password.My password was 19 characters long (hey, this is good practice in the rest of the world).Brought it down to 6 characters, and the error went away and I'm mining.I have bought the below configuration Graphics Card : R9290X 4GB * 2 CoolMaster Power Supply : 1300W Installed AMD Catalyst drivers 13.12 , APP SDK 2.9, ADL SDK 6.0 When I start cgminer.exe Windows is crashing, I have Windows 8.1 64 bit Please advise how to overcome this issue Please post your config file for cgminer or batch file or command line.

You haven't provided enough data.How does it crash?Does it freeze solid?Does it get sluggish then freeze?Does the display distort?Is there any kind of error message?I presume you installed the Catalyst drivers for WIN 8 / 64.There could be a problem with one graphics card.Remove one and try that.cgminer could be working the gpu that's driving your monitor too hard.Try thread concurrency 8192 and intensity 12 on the graphics card that's driving your monitor.Try running with no overclocking at all.I couldn't find what the default clock speed for your card is with a little googling, but try setting it to 900, which may be a bit of an underclock.You must have enough horsepower left to drive your display without cgminer taking all the gpu cycles.Parameters: --auto-gpu --gpu-engine 900-900What is the specific make and model of graphics card?etc.etc.Do some more testing.Give us more data to munch on.Then we may be able to help.Ron PS, this thread talks about how to manage gpu engine and fan speeds, how to determine which command in the config file is driving which gpu, how to manage heat and temperature, and provides a sample config file.

/index.php?p=/discussion/666/heat-death-how-to-kill-your-gpu-in-less-than-a-year#Item_2Ron hello i am using AMD Radeon HD 6320 Graphics in cg and bfg i use the following command but after 48 hours got nothing wanna know is it normal ???or i m using wrong command??my bat contains............. :3333 -O user.worker:test :3333 -O user.worker:test Meh!If your run Windows 8, there is a free app in the store!After installation you put your password and worker name in and voila!Imafia, that's a very,very slow card, practically impossible for you to get credited.. You'll be better off hashing with your cpu.. anyone know how to fix this.i have 4 rigs that were working fine last week, now only 1 works.here is my first issue on one rig: I have installed Windows 7 64bit, cgminer 3.5, and the amd drivers at least 6 times at this point i figured it out, will call RF asap, thank you excuse me all, can you help me with this?am i setting this correctly or not?

:3334 -u dollar_mining77.1 -p r1k1b0yLC and i'm using cpuminer 2.2.3...makes me really confused.. can i mining at GMC with this?please help me... @dollar_mining77 Do you have 32 bit windows?There is a 64 bit version of the miner.@incognitomisquito: I guess i have 32bit windows, because i'm using acer travelmate 4720, intel GMA X3100, windows XP...yesterday i could mine with minerd.exe using Ms.Dos but right now, my PC scan said there's a problem with my minerd.exe have i done anything wrong??thanks for help incognitomisquito... I have seen minerd used in malware to hijack a computer and make it part of a mining botnet.You will have to make an exception for it in your anti-virus.The command you have to run it looks right to me though.To check which version of windows you have (in terms of system architecture), right click computer and select properties.Under system type it will say 32 or 64 bit.EDIT: Oh I see you have Windows XP, not sure if those instructions will work.You can also look for a subfolder under C:\Windows called SysWOW64 if you have that folder than you have 64 bit, if you don't then you don't.

oooh noo... i hope i didn't get my computer hijacked by anyone...so what should i do next?I have to make an exception for it in my anti-virus??do i have to start searching for minerd with 32bit again or anything else?i have search a subfolder under C:\WINDOWS\system32 which means that i have 32bit right?thank you so much for help, if i have bitcoins i'll donate a few for you It doesn't mean you got hijacked it just means that some AV brands have added minerd to their definitions since it is being used maliciously.You will need to figure out how to tell the AV that you want it and not to delete it or quarantine it (and probably restore it from quarantine at this point).All Windows versions have C:\Windows\System32 but only 64 bit versions have C:\Windows\SysWOW64.:3334 -u dollar_mining77.1 -p XXXXXXX.If you had 64 bit windows then your problem could be version related but it doesn't sound like it.You do not need the mining proxy.exe to use the current version cpuminer it supports the stratum protocol now it seems.

:3333 --userpass Drakona.1:123 in a text firle and rename it to ltcoin.bat or what ever else you want.You will be up and mining right away after doing this.No need to include any special comands either unless you want to try and tweak the miner for better results.Though you may want to change the userpass to your own where the first bit(Drakona.1) is your worker and what comes after the :(123) is your workers password.Otherwise your mining for me which I don't really mind if anyone wants to do that too.:P I use HD 7870 2GB but i run CGminer3.3.3 But I only have 17.00 - 18.00 Kh/s i can't anymore start cgminer, it give me an error Pool 0 slow/down or URL or credential invalids but i copyed everything Hi, I'm using 1.3 Fury but I can see to get the right setting have someone here know the right setting I'm using CGMiner v3.1.1 can anyone help please.What is the correct gridseed config to mine only FTC?I'm currently logged in to port:3333 and it appears that I'm mining everything but FTC..
