If you're on Windoze you'll need a 3rd party time synchronization application.

From website:

Generating wallet address:
– Open the geth folder and run geth-console.bat to start Ethereum in console mode
– The software will need to download the blockchain data, it can take some time
– In the console type: personal.newAccount("password")
– Instead of password in the quotes above write your own password and remember it well
– In the console type: eth.accounts
– This will list your Ethereum wallet address
– To check your account balance you can type:web3.fromWei(eth.getBalance(eth.coinbase), "ether")
Sending Ether to another wallet:
– First you need to unlock your account by typing in the console the following (replace password with your password): personal.unlockAccount(eth.accounts[0], "password")
– In the console type: eth.sendTransaction({from: 'your_address', to: 'recipient_address', value: web3.toWei(1, "ether")})
– In the above code replace your_address and recipient_address with the respective addresses, the example is for sending 1 Ether, but you can change the value depending on your needs

Here's a question I have about Ethereum wallets. Up to now I've been storing all my Ethereum on exchanges.

How should I store it in my Ethereum wallet?

I'm confused. Do I just send it to the Ethereum Main Account (Etherbase) wallet, or should I create my own personal wallet within the Etherbase base Main Account and use that as my main storage wallet. How should I go about it?

My confusion is coming from the notice in the wallet that Accounts can't display incoming transactions and to see them I have to create a wallet contract. I don't want to send my Ethereum to my new wallet in case I foul things up.

Apologies if this is a regular question that has been answered before, but I tried looking and couldn't find a definitive answer. Guidance on this might also be of interest to the increased influx of Ethereum wallet newbies because of the publicity given to Devcon last year and to the gamechanging advances made recently.

new wallet keeps getting stuck downloading blocks  Huh

Try closing it and then reopening it.

I downloaded the latest wallet from Github yesterday. It fully synced in what seemed like a couple of hours. It might have been three, but very quick compared to other altcoin wallets I've had. It synced fast until the last few blocks and then it stuck. About 10 minutes passed with no progress so I closed the wallet and opened it again and it was fully synced in seconds.

Stalling when syncing is normal with all the altcoin wallets I've had when first installing. Closing and opening a QT wallet is the standard known cure for sync stalling. I suppose it is the same for ethereum.

How do I get Ethereum miner to recognize 2 cards on the same computer ?... it only mines one of 2 cards .nvidia 980ti at 22 mh/s.
It should have  -d 0,1 but doesn't work..like cuda should.
Thx

EDIT: This my bat file that doesn't work      

ethminer.exe  --farm-recheck 3000  -o http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3001/razorsedge.eth1/22

On the donation bat file I get 1 card 980ti that gives 22 mh/s...but this bat file above doesn't work.
My main thing is to get one card working.
Please help.
thx
EDIT:I have
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 3000 -U -F http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3001/razorsedge.eth1/22  --opencl-platform 1
Working now with only 1 card.
I have 2 750ti too on the rig.

Still won't mine with the other 980ti card......

get the latest driver package from nvidia and the latest ethminer https://github.com/Genoil/cpp-ethereum/blob/stratum/releases/ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.0.4b3.zip?raw=true.  Then what i did on the computer that i had some trouble with is use this little program..  http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
http://www.guru3d.com/files-get/display-driver-uninstaller-download,20.html  let it run in safe mode then click the drop down and select nvidia.. Delete all drivers and restart is the button i selected.> upon restart load the new drivers.  then reboot again..  go to ethminer directory.. ethminer --list-devices  if it shows you all your cards then your are good.. fingers crossed restart the ethminer batch you have. ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 3000 -U -F http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3001/razorsedge.eth1/22  --opencl-platform 1   if that still doesnt work.. try add -t 3 switch after the -U  not sure that will do anything but ive seen some say yes and some no.. Idk..  sorry i could be of more help.   If you do figure it out.. Please let us know what you did to get it working.Smiley

...clip...


My best guess, you need two instances and specify the CUDA device in each instance.

Code:
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 3000 -U -F http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3001/razorsedge.eth1/22   --opencl-platform 1 --cuda-devices 0

Code:
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 3000 -U -F http://eth-us.suprnova.cc:3001/razorsedge.eth1/22   --opencl-platform 1 --cuda-devices 1

Quote
--cuda-devices <0 1 ..n> Select which GPUs to mine on. Default is to use all
It says all CUDA devices are used by default so I don't know why two instances should be needed. Use the following to see if both cards are detected:

Quote
--list-devices List the detected OpenCL/CUDA devices and exit.
Code:
ethminer.exe --list-devices

Mining configuration:
    -C,--cpu  When mining, use the CPU.
    -G,--opencl  When mining use the GPU via OpenCL.
    -U,--cuda  When mining use the GPU via CUDA.
    --opencl-platform   When mining using -G/--opencl use OpenCL platform n (default: 0).
    --opencl-device   When mining using -G/--opencl use OpenCL device n (default: 0).
    -t, --mining-threads Limit number of CPU/GPU miners to n (default: use everything available on selected platform)
    --allow-opencl-cpu Allows CPU to be considered as an OpenCL device if the OpenCL platform supports it.
    --list-devices List the detected OpenCL/CUDA devices and exit.
    --current-block Let the miner know the current block number at configuration time. Will help determine DAG size and required GPU memory.
    --cl-extragpu-mem Set the memory (in MB) you believe your GPU requires for stuff other than mining. Windows rendering e.t.c..
    --cl-local-work Set the OpenCL local work size. Default is 64
    --cl-global-work Set the OpenCL global work size as a multiple of the local work size. Default is 4096 * 64
    --cl-ms-per-batch Set the OpenCL target milliseconds per batch (global workgroup size). Default is 0. If 0 is given then no autoadjustment of global work size will happen
    --cuda-extragpu-mem Set the memory (in MB) you believe your GPU requires for stuff other than mining. Windows rendering e.t.c..
    --cuda-block-size Set the CUDA block work size. Default is 128
    --cuda-grid-size Set the CUDA grid size. Default is 2048
    --cuda-streams Set the number of CUDA streams. Default is 2
    --cuda-schedule Set the schedule mode for CUDA threads waiting for CUDA devices to finish work. Default is sync. Possible values are:
        auto  - Uses a heuristic based on the number of active CUDA contexts in the process C and the number of logical processors in the system P. If C > P, then yield else spin.
        spin  - Instruct CUDA to actively spin when waiting for results from the device.
        yield - Instruct CUDA to yield its thread when waiting for results from the device.
        sync  - Instruct CUDA to block the CPU thread on a synchronization primitive when waiting for the results from the device.
    --cuda-devices <0 1 ..n> Select which GPUs to mine on. Default is to use all

You sure are....because nvidia's most popular card can't mine it.

It can mine it, just not efficiently.

Years ago back in late 2013 I got an old used Radeon HD5970 and a 2TH/s ASIC pre-order. The HD5970 ROI'd in less than week and it still mines ETH at about 30MH/s. However, I'm still waiting for my ASIC pre-order to arrive. They told me "next week", I'm sure it will arrive any day now....

EDIT:

On an unrelated note I got an Nvidia GTX590 and the Radeon HD5970 running bridged in the same box with Windows 10 and DX12. They ran for about 30 seconds before the 1200W gold PSU said no way. I wonder how MS got the cats and dogs to live together like that.
