Thank you very much Smiley It seemed to have solved the problem, I am now getting around 8 khash/s. Is there anything else I can do to increase my speed?

In order to increase your speed replace pthreadGC2.dll with this one:

http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/pthreadGC2.dll

And replace minerd with this file:

http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-corei7-avx.exe?dl=1

(rename it to minerd.exe)

I am not sure what is wrong but the p2pool seems very wierd.

Nothing wrong with p2pool - it is normal behavior  Cool
 

Litecoin was launched on Thursday Oct 13, 03:00 GMT

First month... Smiley

Try substituting the default minerd.exe with the following:
http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-amdfam10-sse4a.exe?dl=1
You should be able to get about 2.4 kH/s per thread on a 2600K.

DeaDTerra,
I had the same problem when I tried out the GUI, I managed to solve it by adding pthreadGC2.dll to the program's directory. Find it here:
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?pthreadgc2
Hope this helps!

I am not sure what is wrong but the p2pool seems very wierd.

Tried it for 2 days and payments are extremly low this far like 1/20 of what I was getting at simplecoin.us

I have no idea how mining actually works so I couln't tell what is wrong with it. I am getting paid from the p2pool but very little.
The big difference I am seeing is that is like just one line with 1 hash between longpoll new blocks instead of multiple readouts with thousand of hashes....

Mining under windows 7 with 1 tread here should be about 2.9khash. I have been running 1 tread on simplecoin and one on p2ppool on different cores for comparison.

Here is what it looks like:

Can someone help me setup a litecoin miner that works in windows and that can connect to a pool? having trouble finding a easy guide to follow Smiley
You can try my application, it comes with a miner and GUI, so you only need to extract the files and run the ScryptMiner.exe to get started :
http://liteco.in/threads/scryptminer-litecoin-mining-gui.31/
Okay I have downloaded it and extracted it, but when I run it the program says
"[13:26:50] - Miner started. It usually takes a minute until the program starts reporting information.
[13:26:50] - Miner killed"
have I managed to do something wrong?
Did you join a pool and input the necessary settings such as your worker username and password?

yes I used the setup from litecoinpool.org
URL:   http://litecoinpool.org:9332/
Username:   your_username.1
Password:   1

But ofc changed my user name instead of the your_username

The URL and port need to be added into their separate fields

URL: litecoinpool.org
Port : 9332
I have done that and still get the same error Sad

Ermmm.... it is possible that you have wrong version of Python.

You need 2.7.2 - not newer!

Try to reinstall it  Grin

let me know if it has problems... but I think its working correct  Cool
hmm syntax error ... can you make the exe plz  Smiley
cu
I cannot compile that code right now - sorry

If you're on Win you need first to install Python 2.7:
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.2/python-2.7.2.msi

Then start cmd and type:
PATH C:\Python27;%PATH%

To start script you type:
Python C:\src\solidchartfeed.py -s btceBTC -a 10
or
Python C:\src\solidchartfeed.py -s btceUSD -a 10


C:\src>Python C:\src\solidchartfeed.py -s btceBTC -a 10
  File "C:\src\solidchartfeed.py", line 57
    if log: print 'Fetcing', url
                          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


hmmm ....

You can use block explorer to find every transaction for your address or just use new address for every transaction  Wink

I have a question regarding how the client lists received coins. Whenever I start my client, and I happen to have received coins during the absence, the client lists them as received when the client updates with the network, and not when they were actually sent/received.

Is this how it is intended to work? Do I have to use a block explorer to find out when they were actually received?

I've only restarted it once since it went up, and even then it was only down for just over twenty seconds, your miners should've reconnected.

I'm mining directly with the p2pool. What I meant if it is possible to use it the same way -addnode works in bitcoin as an additional way for the p2pool to find peers.

Also about how long should I expect before seeing any payments from the p2pool with ~5.6khash?
-n is the equivalent of addnode, yes. I believe at least liteco.in is hardcoded as a node in the files, probably among others.

Expect a payment as soon as the entire pool solves its first block, with the pool's 60.261 getting a block on average every 11.9 hours.
