i installed SGMINER but fail todo settings i configured this file sgminer.conf am i right?
pls give me instructions so that i can start with GPU mining, what i write there
I personally have only used sgminer a few times. I never used the sgminer.conf file. So the only way I can help is the long about way with sgminer (and trust me its not worth doing if you have to restart sgminer often :p )
This is just ME so someone else will give info how to use the .conf file for sgminer
rename sgminer.conf to like sgminer1.conf or something then double click sgminer.exe it will bring up a window with something like
[15:31:08] Started sgminer 5.3.1
[15:31:08] * using Jansson 2.7
[15:31:08] Need to specify at least one pool server.
Input server details.
URL:
now type in the pool url ( stratum+tcp://bern.mine.zpool.ca:3933 ) and hit enter and it will show
Enter your wallet address ( BDPF8bL6W8xvAjasc1vS2ueGPJUFENbDjR ) hit enter and it will show
Enter c=BERN hit enter and it will show
You can leave this blank or just put whatever there. hit enter and it will show
Again this can be blank or whatever. hit enter and it will show
again this can be blank or whatever. Hit enter and it will show
enter x14 and hit enter and it will start mining.. (will look sorta like this)
